Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human TK. AA range:1-50
Specificity
Thymidine Kinase Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of Thymidine Kinase protein.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. Immunohistochemistry: 1/100 - 1/300. Immunofluorescence: 1/200 - 1/1000. ELISA: 1/5000. Not yet tested in other applications.
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
catalytic activity:ATP + thymidine = ADP + thymidine 5'-phosphate.,miscellaneous:Two forms have been identified in animal cells, one in cytosol and one in mitochondria. Activity of the cytosolic enzyme is high in proliferating cells and peaks during the S-phase of the cell cycle; it is very low in resting cells.,PTM:Phosphorylated on Ser-13 in mitosis.,similarity:Belongs to the thymidine kinase family.,
