Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes mucin-1 (gene MUC1) in human samples and is validated for IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 122.1 kDa.
Mucin-1 (MUC1) is a heavily glycosylated transmembrane mucin on the apical surface of most epithelia, forming part of the protective barrier. Its cytoplasmic tail engages signaling pathways including ERK, SRC and NF-κB and can influence p53-regulated transcription. MUC1 is often overexpressed and aberrantly glycosylated in carcinomas, so it is widely studied in cancer biology.

Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human ovary cancer tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Immunogen
Recombinant human MUC1 fragment (Arg945–Gly1097), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse ortholog: 56%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places mucin-1 in the apical cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed on the apical surface of epithelial cells, especially of airway passages, breast and uterus.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
