Anti-Fibronectin Monoclonal Antibody (Clone: Fn-3)

Fibronectins are disulfide-linked, dimeric glycoproteins of ~440kDa. They possess at least four binding sites for collagen, glycosaminoglycans, transglutaminase, and a cell surface receptor. Epitope of this MAb is located in the 2nd-3rd type-III repeats of fibronectin. Fibronectins are extracellular matrix glycoproteins that are essential for embryonic development. Fibronectins are also involved in cell adhesion, tissue organization, and wound healing. Fibronectins are present in basement membranes, interstitial connective tissue matrix, and blood. Cellular fibronectin is widely distributed in the stroma of many malignant tumors. This MAb reacts with human cellular fibronectin, but not plasma fibronectin.
