- Tool name: PL2 Peptide
- Alternate name: PL2, Oncofetal fibronectin (FN-EDB) specific peptide
- Research fields: Cancer;Cell biology
- Tool sub type: Synthetic Peptide
- Sequence: TSKQNSR
- Cellular tissue localisation: PL2 is specific to oncofetal fibronection Extra Domain-B
- Target: Oncofetal fibronectin (FN-EDB)
- Description: Oncofetal fibronectin (FN-EDB) is not present in the extracellular matrix of adult tissues but it is up-regulated in tumours and malignant tissues. It has previously been used as a target for antibody-based therapies. The PL2 specific peptide has enhanced affinity to bind to FN-EDB so may be useful as an affinity ligand for delivery of diagnostic compounds into solid tumours.
- Function: Marker
