• Synonyms: CA19-9, Sialosyl Lewis a, Sialyl Lewis a
• Summary: Mucin glucoprotein is a sialyl Lewis structure which is synthesized from type 1 blood group precursor chains and is present in individuals expressing the Lewis a and/or Lewis b blood group antigens. In normal tissues, sialyl Lewis a antigen is present in ductal epithelium of the breast, kidney, salivary gland, and sweat glands. Its expression is greatly enhanced in serum as well as in the majority of tumor cells in gastrointestinal (GI) carcinomas.
• Protein Families: Immunogen, calibrator in immunoassays and in vitro studies.
