Application Note
IHC, ICC (frozen or formalin–fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections, cell smears) 1:50-1:200 using streptavidin-Biotin system or polymer system. Prediluted antibody is used directly without dilution. For FFPE tissue sections high temperature antigen retriever (boiling tissue in 10 mM citrate buffer for 10 minutes) enhances the signal and may require further dilution of antibody.

Background
This gene encodes a member of the mucin protein family. Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins produced by many epithelial tissues. The protein encoded by this gene is secreted and forms an insoluble mucous barrier that protects the gut lumen. The protein polymerizes into a gel of which 80% is composed of oligosaccharide side chains by weight. The protein features a central domain containing tandem repeats rich in threonine and proline that varies between 50 and 115 copies in different individuals. Downregulation of this gene has been observed in patients with Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
