Product Details anti-TYMS Antibody

Binding Specificity: AA 60-174

Purpose: TYMS Antibody / Thymidylate Synthase

Characteristics: This antibody recognizes a protein of 36 kDa, identified as Thymidylate Synthase (TS, TYMS). TS converts deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) to deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which is essential for DNA biosynthesis. TS is also a critical target for the fluoropyrimidines, an important group of antineoplastic drugs that are widely used in the treatment of solid tumors. Both 5-FU and fluorodeoxyuridine are converted in tumor cells to FdUMP which inactivates TS by formation of a ternary covalent complex in the presence of the folate cofactor 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate. Expression of TS protein is associated with response to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in human colorectal, gastric, head and neck, and breast carcinomas.

Purification: Protein G affinity chromatography

Immunogen: A recombinant human parital protein corresponding to amino acids 60-174 was used as the immunogen for this TYMS antibody.

Isotype: IgG2c, kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: The optimal dilution of the TYMS antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.

1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
