KLH Antibody detects Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin protein which is a very large, heterogeneous glycosylated protein consisting of subunits with a molecular weight of 350,000 and 390,000. KLH readily forms aggregates with molecular weights of 4,500,000-13,000,000 daltons. Each domain of a KLH subunit contains two copper atoms that together bind a single oxygen molecule (O2). When oxygen is bound to hemocyanin, the molecule takes on a distinctive transparent, opalescent blue color. The KLH protein is potently immunogenic yet safe in humans and is therefore highly prized as a vaccine carrier protein. The large and highly glycosylated KLH protein cannot be reproduced synthetically. It is available only as a purified biological product from the Keyhole Limpet Megathura crenulata. KLH is being tested in a variety of cancer vaccines, including non-Hodgkins lymphoma, cutaneous melanoma, breast and bladder cancer. Synonyms: Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin
