BRCA1 Antibody / Breast Cancer Marker [clone BRCA1/2973] (V5544)

Analysis of HuProt(TM) microarray containing more than 19,000 full-length human proteins using BRCA-1 antibody (clone BRCA1/2973). These results demonstrate the foremost specificity of the BRCA1/2973 mAb. Z- and S- Score: The Z-score represents the strength of a signal that a monoclonal antibody (clone MAb) (in combination with a fluorescently-tagged anti-IgG secondary antibody) produces when binding to a particular protein on the HuProt(TM) array. Z-scores are described in units of standard deviations (SD's) above the mean value of all signals generated on that array. If targets on HuProt(TM) are arranged in descending order of the Z-score, the S-score is the difference (also in units of SD's) between the Z-score. S-score therefore represents the relative target specificity of a MAb to its intended target. A MAb is considered to specific to its intended target, if the MAb has an S-score of at least 2.5. For example, if a MAb binds to protein X with a Z-score of 43 and to protein Y with a Z-score of 14, then the S-score for the binding of that MAb to protein X is equal to 29.

SDS-PAGE analysis of purified, BSA-free BRCA1 antibody (clone BRCA1/2973) as confirmation of integrity and purity.
