Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Gly169 of human FAM3C protein.
Background
FAM3C, also known as ILEI (interleukin-like epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition [EMT] inducer), is a cytokine-like protein and member of the FAM3 family. FAM3C plays an important role in EMT and metastasis during cancer progression in human and mouse cells, and is highly expressed in human cancer (1,2). In colorectal cancer, researchers have indicated that FAM3C is a marker for EMT and tumor progression, and that high expression of FAM3C is predictive of poor prognosis (3). While EMT induction by FAM3C can be independent of TGF-beta, research studies have also shown TGF-beta-dependent regulation of FAM3C expression at the translational level in mouse and human cells (4,5).
FAM3C has also been linked to regulation of osteoblast differentiation (6), and to accumulation of amyloid beta plaques in Alzheimer’s disease (7). FAM3C exists in monomeric and in homodimeric form, and research shows that FAM3C homodimers contain its EMT-inducing and tumor promoting activity (8).

Species Reactivity
Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).
Western Blot Buffer
IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
