Gene Information

human ... TYMP(1890)

General description

The gene TYMP (thymidine phosphorylase) is mapped to human chromosome 22q13.33. It is found to be expressed in neurons of the peripheral nervous system.

Immunogen

Thymidine phosphorylase precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies®Powered by Atlas Antibodies is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Thymidine phosphorylase is an enzyme encoded by the TYMP gene in humans. The protein stimulates angiogenesis that may occur by an indirect mechanism through its enzymatic activity. It plays an important role in angiogenesis and extracellular matrix remodeling. It is expressed in primary tumours and may be a risk factor for lymph node (LN) and hepatic metastasis in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. The gene strongly influences gastric cancer progression by the dual activities of angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. TYMP is more likely expressed by malignant B cells in higher-grade lymphomas. It is an enzyme involved in nucleotide synthesis and has been implicated in critical biological processes such as DNA replication, protection against mutations and tissue repair. Deletions in this gene have been associated with mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy (MNGIE).

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
