Scientific Data
Detection of MFAP3 in Human Tonsil. MFAP3 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of Human Tonsil using Mouse Anti-Human MFAP3 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB10798) at 5 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Mouse IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC001). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to lymphocytes.

Background: MFAP3
Microfibril-associated glycoprotein 3 (MFAP3), is a member of the MFAP family which play a role in microfibril assembly, elastinogenesis, and tissue homeostasis. The family members were identified as potential components of fibrillin-containing microfibrils, but they do not share structural similarities (1). MFAP3 is found in ocular zonules. Human MFAP3 is a serine-rich acidic protein located in zonular fibers and consists of an extracellular domain (ECD) containing one Ig-like C2-type domain, a single transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. Within the ECD, mature human MFAP3 shares 74% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat MFAP3. Among MFAP3-related pathways are degradation of the extracellular matrix and elastic fiber formation. MFAP is a candidate gene for heritable diseases affecting microfibrils (2).
