Analysis of HuProt(TM) microarray containing more than 19,000 full-length human proteins using MGMT antibody (clone MGMT/4791). These results demonstrate the foremost specificity of the MGMT/4791 mAb. Z- and S- score: The Z-score represents the strength of a signal that an antibody (in combination with a fluorescently-tagged anti-IgG secondary Ab) produces when binding to a particular protein on the HuProt(TM) array. Z-scores are described in units of standard deviations (SD's) above the mean value of all signals generated on that array. If the targets on the HuProt(TM) are arranged in descending order of the Z-score, the S-score is the difference (also in units of SD's) between the Z-scores. The S-score therefore represents the relative target specificity of an Ab to its intended target.

Application Details:
Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 1-2ug/ml
Application Note:
Optimal dilution of the MGMT antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Description:
Cancer chemotherapeutic alkylating agents (e.g. BCNU,) act by inducing formation of lethal cross links at the O6 alkylguanine position in DNA. MGMT transfers alkyl adducts from the O6 position of guanine in DNA (prior to cross link formation) to a cysteine residue in its own sequence, thereby restoring DNA to its intact state. This transfer inactivates the MGMT enzyme and is irreversible; hence the level of MGMT in a cell is directly proportional to the level of DNA damage it can tolerate. In normal tissues, MGMT acts as a suppressor of mutation and carcinogenesis. Tumors with high levels of MGMT are likely to be drug resistant
