TYMS antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6171333

Product Details anti-TYMS Antibody

Target: TYMS (Thymidylate Synthetase (TYMS))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This TYMS antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunofluorescence (IF), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunostaining (ISt), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Purpose: Mouse Monoclonal anti-Thymidylate Synthase (TS106), Purified, BSA-free

Characteristics: This antibody recognizes a protein of 36 kDa, identified as Thymidylate Synthase (TS) (EC 2.1.1.45). 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. Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF® dyes and other labels. CF® dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.

Purification: Purified

Immunogen: Recombinant human thymidylate synthase

Application Details

Application Notes: Immunohistology formalin-fixed 1-2 μg/mL

• Staining of formalin-fixed tissues is enhanced by boiling tissue sections in 10 mM citrate buffer,  pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes
• Immunofluorescence 0.5-1 μg/mL
• Flow Cytometry 0.5-1 μg/million cells/0.1 mL
• Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined by user
