SSEA-3 Rat, PE, Clone: MC-631 (also known as MC631), BD
Rat Monoclonal Antibody
Brand: BD Biosciences 560879
Description
The MC-631 monoclonal antibody reacts with Stage-Specific Embryonic Antigen-3 (SSEA-3), a carbohydrate epitope on the major ganglioside, but not the neutral glycolipid, of mouse embryos and human teratocarcinoma cells. As its name implies, the expression of SSEA-3 is stage-specific and can be used to characterize embryonic cells and monitor their differentiation. However, its expression pattern differs between human and mouse. In the human, SSEA-3 is found on teratocarcinoma (embryonal carcinoma or EC), embryonic inner cell mass (ICM), embryonic stem (ES) cells, and erythrocytes. As human stem cells undergo differentiation, SSEA-3 expression diminishes. In the mouse, SSEA-3 is found on oocytes, ova, zygotes, early cleavage-stage embryos, early blastocysts, ICM, primitive endoderm, and adult kidneys, but not on EC or ES cells.
