The human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a well-studied tumor biomarkers in pancreatic cancer and is overexpressed in 83–98% of pancreatic cancers. CEA is a cell-surface glycoprotein that is normally expressed during embryogenesis, with little to no expression in normal tissue, and is used as a serum tumor marker in patients with pancreatic cancer. The Anti-CEA Nanobody recognises this tumour marker. For this reason, it is often used in a labelled form to identify tumours.

Anti-CEA Nanobody (C43)

CEA-specific (carcinoembryonic antigen) Nanobody is optimized for production in E. coli.


Usage and Biology

The human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a well-studied tumor biomarkers in pancreatic cancer and is overexpressed in 83–98% of pancreatic cancers. CEA is a cell-surface glycoprotein that is normally expressed during embryogenesis, with little to no expression in normal tissue, and is used as a serum tumor marker in patients with pancreatic cancer. The Anti-CEA Nanobody recognises this tumour marker. For this reason, it is often used in a labelled form to identify tumours.
