Mucin 16 Antibody (X306) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Mucin 16 in human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Mucin 16, also known as CA125, is a high molecular weight glycoprotein encoded by the MUC16 gene and is primarily located on the cell surface of epithelial tissues, particularly in the ovaries. Mucin 16′s presence in the glycocalyx plays a critical role in protecting mucosal surfaces from pathogens and particulate matter, while also facilitating cell signaling and adhesion. Mucin 16′s structure is characterized by three distinct domains: a carboxy terminal domain, an extracellular domain, and an amino terminal domain, which contribute to Mucin 16′s function as a tumor-associated antigen. Mucin 16 is particularly significant in the context of ovarian cancer, where anti-Mucin 16 antibody (X306) serves as a biomarker for disease progression and response to therapy. Mucin 16′s ability to interact with various signaling molecules and immune cells underscores Mucin 16′s importance in both tumor biology and potential therapeutic strategies, making anti-Mucin 16 antibody (X306) an invaluable tool for researchers studying cancer and epithelial cell biology.
