PSA-NCAM Antibody, anti-human/mouse/rat, pure

01MT18213

The Anti-PSA-NCAM antibody recognizes an epitope on human, mouse, and rat polysialic acid (PSA) which, in vertebrates, is found linked to the extracellular domain of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM, CD56). PSA-NCAM, the highly polysialated form of NCAM, is predominantly expressed in embryonic and neonatal neural tissue. In adult mammalian brain PSA-NCAM expression is restricted mainly to areas that retain neurogenic potential, such as the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. PSA-NCAM is a marker for immature neuronal-committed progenitors that are permane
