Highest antigen sequence indentity to the following orthologs: Mouse (60%), Rat (60%).
This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
TSPAN8 (tetraspanin 8), also known as TM4SF3 or CO-029, is a 237 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein that belongs to the tetraspanin family of transmembrane proteins and is thought to play a role in signal transduction events that influence cell development, activation, growth and motility. Localized to the cell membrane, TSPAN8 is expressed in colon, gastric, renal and pancreatic cancers, strongly suggesting a role in cancer formation and metastasis. The gene encoding TSPAN8 maps to human chromosome 12, which encodes over 1,100 genes and comprises approximately 4.5% of the human genome.
