This antibody recognizes the epitope HETTDKNLS within the AGR3 (AG3) protein (19-20 kDa), a secreted cytoplasmic protein which can serve as a marker of carcinogenesis.
AGR3 (Anterior Gradient 3) protein, also known as AG3 (hAG-3, HAG3 in human), or BCMP11, is a secreted cytoplasmic protein which is involved in metastasis induction and p53 tumour supressor inhibition. It may serve as molecular marker and potential therapeutic target for hormone-responsive breast tumours. Its Xenopus homolog is associated with anteroposterior fate determination during early development.Synonyms: Anterior gradient protein 3 homolog, BCMP11, HAG-3, HAG3, breast cancer membrane protein 11
