General description
MDM2 is over-expressed in many tumors. Its principal function is the ubiquitination and degradation of p53 tumor suppressor protein. This monoclonal antibody also recognizes a peptide epitope around Thr-216 of murine MDM2 when Thr-216 is unphosphorylated. SMP14 also cross reacts with some cytokeratins (6, 14 & 16). This is only a problem when working with certain epithelial cells and not fibroblasts.
Specificity
This antibody recognizes MDM2.
