Overview
Basigin Antibody / CD147 / Emmprin is an antibody targeting Basigin. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: BSG/7952. Format: Purified. Applications: WB, IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: Basigin.
- Immunogen: Recombinant full-length human protein was used as the immunogen for the Basigin antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Cell surface.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Basigin is expressed more intensely on thymocytes than on mature peripheral blood T cells. It is important in spermatogenesis, embryo implantation, neural network formation, and tumor progression. It stimulates the production of interstitial collagenase, gelatinase A, stromelysin-1 and various metalloproteinases (MMPs) by fibroblasts. These enzymes are important factors in cancer invasion and metastasis.
Common research applications
- WB: relative abundance and band pattern assessment using appropriate controls.
- IHC: tissue distribution assessment; interpret with matched controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
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).
