| Antigen: |
AP-2 α and β forms. |
| Relevance: |
AP-2 is a family of developmentally
regulated transcription factors, which also play a role
in breast cancer and melanoma. AP-2β
may be important in cardiac and kidney development.
The AP-2 transcription factors form the OB2 complex
that has been shown to up-regulate c-erb-B2 transcription. |

| Notes: |
Positive control:
Raji cells or breast carcinomas.
As the antibody also recognises AP-2beta, the epitope it recognises is probably the last 8 amino acids as these are common between alpha and beta. Immunohistology fixative formal saline with calcium paraffin embedded (10min microwave treatment required). |
