Application

Anti-TXNRD2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, 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. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

TXNRD2 (thioredoxin reductase 2) gene encodes a protein belonging to the class I pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family. It is a selenocysteine-containing enzyme that functions in scavenging of mitochondrial oxygen radicals. Mutations in this gene may cause dilated cardiomyopathy. Excessive generation or accumulation of oxygen radicals can cause tissue injury and functional deterioration after myocardial ischemia/reperfusion. These radicals are scavenged by thioredoxin reductase 2, thus protecting against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

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.
