This antibody is known to react with mouse FAP protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest partial cross-reactivity with FAP from human and rat sources based on ~88% homology with the immunizing sequence. Reactivity with FAP from other sources has not been determined.
The protein encoded by this gene is a homodimeric integral membrane gelatinase belonging to the serine protease family. It is selectively expressed in reactive stromal fibroblasts of epithelial cancers, granulation tissue of healing wounds, and malignant cells of bone and soft tissue sarcomas. This protein is thought to be involved in the control of fibroblast growth or epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during development, tissue repair, and epithelial carcinogenesis.
