    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    RHAMM/CD168 (E7S4Y) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total RHAMM/CD168 protein. Non-specific staining was observed in kidney proximal tubules.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human RHAMM/CD168 protein. The antigenic peptide spans a region that is 100% conserved among the four isoforms of RHAMM/CD168 reported in Uniprot.

    Background

    Receptor for Hyaluronic acid-Mediated Motility (RHAMM, known also as CD168 or HMMR) was first identified as a putative receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA) that modulated HA-mediated cell motility (1). RHAMM/CD168 is functionally similar to the HA receptor CD44; however in contrast to CD44, RHAMM/CD168 does not contain a transmembrane domain or a signal peptide leader sequence, and so is not targeted exclusively to the cell membrane (1). RHAMM/CD168 has multiple isoforms; some are reportedly exported to the cell membrane in response to signaling by growth factors and cytokines (e.g., TGF-β) (2, 3), whereas others have been implicated in intracellular functions including mitotic spindle regulation (4). Cell surface RHAMM/CD168 is localized to membrane ruffles, consistent with proteins that regulate cell motility (1). Numerous research studies have reported that the expression of RHAMM/CD168 is positively associated with cancer cell growth, motility and/or metastasis (5-7), in addition to HA-mediated inflammation (8), suggesting the potential for therapeutic approaches that target HA-receptor mediated signaling (9,10).
