Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Human milk fat globule membranes (GP1.4); Delipidated extract of human milk fat globule membranes (E29).  Isotypes: Mouse / IgG1, kappa (GP1.4) + Mouse / IgG2a, kappa (E29)
Specificity	In Western blotting, it recognizes proteins in MW range of 265-400kDa, identified as different glycoforms of EMA. The alpha subunit has cell adhesive properties. It can act both as an adhesion and an anti-adhesion protein. EMA may provide a protective layer on epithelial cells against bacterial and enzyme attack. The beta subunit contains a C-terminal domain, which is involved in cell signaling, through phosphorylations and protein-protein interactions. In immunohistochemical assays, it superbly stains routine formalin/paraffin carcinoma tissues. Antibody to EMA is useful as a pan-epithelial marker for detecting early metastatic loci of carcinoma in bone marrow or liver. Cellular Localization: Cytoplasmic & cell surface.
