Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C for longer. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Gene Name	mucin 1, cell surface associated
Database Link	Entrez Gene 4582 Human UniProt ID P15941
Background	MUC1 is a large transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the ductal surface of normal glandular epithelia. The extracellular domain of MUC1 largely consists of a highly conserved, O-glycosylated 20 aminoacids tandem repeat which can occur 30-100 times per molecule depending on the length of the allele involved. In the vast majority of human carcinomas this protein is upregulated and poorly glycosylated and appears on the cell surface in a non-polarized fashion. The dominant epitope of mAb VU12E1 is the 5-mer PDTRP of the MUC1 tandem repeat as established with “epitope fingerprinting”.
Synonyms	MUC-1, PEMT, Episialin, EMA, H23AG, PUM, DF3, CA 15-3
