Key Product Details

Species Reactivity

Human

Applications

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin

Label

Alexa Fluor Plus 555 (Excitation = 558 nm, Emission = 572 nm)

Antibody Source

Recombinant Monoclonal Rabbit IgG Kappa Clone # MYH11/8185R

Concentration

Please see the vial label for concentration. If unlisted please contact technical services.

Product Specifications

Immunogen

Recombinant fragment (around aa1-200) of human Myosin heavy chain 11 protein (exact sequence is proprietary)

Localization

Cytoplasm.

Specificity

The antibody reacts with smooth muscle cells and myoepithelial cells, but not with myofibroblasts. It is very helpful in distinguishing between benign sclerosing breast lesions and infiltrating carcinomas in difficult cases since it strongly stains the myoepithelial layer in the benign lesions while it is negative in the infiltrating carcinomas.

Marker

SM-MHCLeiomyosarcoma & Myoepithelial Cell Marker

Clonality

Monoclonal

Host

Rabbit

Isotype

IgG Kappa

Background: Myosin heavy chain 11

The protein encoded by the MYH11 gene is a smooth muscle myosin belonging to the myosin heavy chain family. The gene product is a subunit of a hexameric protein that consists of two heavy chain subunits and two pairs of non-identical light chain subunits. MYH11 functions as a major contractile protein, converting chemical energy into mechanical energy through the hydrolysis of ATP. The gene encoding a human ortholog of rat NUDE1 is transcribed from the reverse strand of this gene, and its 3' end overlaps with that of the latter. The pericentric inversion of chromosome 16 [inv(16)(p13q22)] produces a chimeric transcript that encodes a protein consisting of the first 165 residues from the N terminus of core-binding factor beta in a fusion with the C-terminal portion of the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain. This chromosomal rearrangement is associated with acute myeloid leukemia of the M4Eo subtype. Alternative splicing generates isoforms that are differentially expressed, with ratios changing during muscle cell maturation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
