PLET1 Antibody / C11orf34

PLET1 (placenta-expressed transcript 1), also known as antigen mAgK114, is a 23 kDa membrane protein that is probably GPI-anchored. It is recognized by the antibodies MTS20 and MTS24. Mature mouse PLET1, which most likely includes amino acids (aa) 28-216 of 237 aa, shares less than 60% aa sequence identity with the most closely related rat or human protein. A potential 194 aa mouse splice variant diverges after aa 149 but still contains a hydrophobic sequence at the C-terminus. PLET1 is a marker of early thymic progenitor cells and pancreatic duct epithelium.
