Monoclonal Anti-TES (mouse IgG3 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma TES75 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic peptide. Testin LIM domain protein (TES) comprises cysteine-rich zinc-binding motifs called LIM domains and is a component of focal adhesions. TES gene is mapped to a common fragile site on chromosome 7q31.2 is designated as FRA7G.
Specificity
Monoclonal Anti-TES recognizes human, monkey, bovine, and mouse TES
Application
Anti-TES antibody, mouse monoclonal may be used in immunoblotting.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Testin LIM domain protein (TES), a putative tumor-suppressor gene, is essential for motility and is key for the tumor cell anchorage and metastasis. TES mRNA expression is found in several cancer-derived cell lines, particularly hematopoietic, breast and ovarian cancer cell lines as well as in primary tumors. This was correlated with methylation of TES CpG island. Furthermore, TES gene knockout revealed its role as a tumor suppressor gene as well as in actin stress fibre organization.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
Storage and Stability
Store at –20 °C. For continuous use, the product may be stored at 2–8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze at –20 °C in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
