Anti-CTAGE1 Antibody

This polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets CTAGE1 (Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma-Associated Antigen 1), a transmembrane protein implicated in cargo export from the endoplasmic reticulum and in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma pathogenesis. The reagent is a rabbit IgG polyclonal, supplied unconjugated and ready-to-use for western blot workflows in basic and translational immunology laboratories.

Validated for human reactivity, the antibody is delivered in a 100 µl vial suitable for multiple immunoblotting experiments. For optimal stability, aliquot upon arrival and store at -20 °C, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles; once thawed, the vial can be kept refrigerated at 4 °C for short-term use. Protection from light is recommended for long-term storage to preserve reagent integrity.

Investigators apply this reagent to study CTAGE1 expression across melanoma and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma cell lines, to probe ER-to-Golgi trafficking of misfolded proteins, and to explore the antigen's emerging role in tumor immunogenicity and vaccine target discovery. Each preparation supports routine western blot detection of endogenous human CTAGE1 in whole-cell lysate samples.
