GPNMB, also known as osteoactivin or glycoprotein NMB, is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that has emerged as a significant target in both cancer biology and immunology research. This multifunctional protein plays diverse roles in cellular processes including melanocyte differentiation, osteoblast function, and tissue repair. In the tumor microenvironment, GPNMB expression has been associated with disease progression across multiple cancer types, making it an attractive target for both diagnostic investigation and therapeutic development, including antibody-drug conjugate strategies.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 3G2, offers researchers the reproducibility essential for longitudinal studies and multi-site collaborations. Because the antibody sequence is defined and production occurs through recombinant expression rather than traditional hybridoma methods, you can expect consistent performance across lots, eliminating a common source of experimental variability that can complicate data interpretation.
The antibody has been validated for flow cytometry applications, with testing demonstrated in HeLa cells. In these experiments using fixed and permeabilized cells, the antibody produced clear signal separation from isotype control at a 1:100 dilution, confirming specific detection of intracellular GPNMB. The recommended working range of 1:20 to 1:500 for flow cytometry provides flexibility to optimize signal intensity based on your specific experimental conditions and cell types. ELISA compatibility further extends the utility of this reagent for quantitative protein detection workflows.
For researchers investigating GPNMB biology in cancer progression, immune cell function, or as a potential therapeutic target, this antibody provides a reliable tool for characterizing human GPNMB expression at the single-cell level.
