Catalogue number
ANT-002
Synonyms
TMS, EC 2.1.1.45, HST422, Thymidylate synthase, TSase, TS, TYMS, MGC88736.
Type
Mouse Anti Human Monoclonal.
Introduction
Thymidylate synthase catalyzes the methylation of deoxyuridylate to deoxythymidylate using 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate as a cofactor which maintains the dTMP (thymidine-5-prime monophosphate) pool vital for DNA replication and repair. Thymidylate synthase plays an important role as a cancer chemotherapeutic agent. Thymidylate synthase is the primary site of action for 5-fluorouracil, 5-fluoro-2-prime-deoxyuridine, and several folate analogs.
Clone
PAT1S5AT.
Immunogen
Anti-human TYMS mAb, is derived from hybridization of mouse F0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant human TYMS amino acids 1-313 purified from E. coli.
Ig Subclass
Mouse IgG2b heavy chain and κ light chain.
Purification Method
TYMS antibody was purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-G affinity chromatography.
Formulation
1mg/ml containing PBS, pH-7.4, & 0.1% Sodium Azide.
Storage Procedures
For periods up to 1 month store at 4°C, for longer periods of time, store at -20°C. Prevent freeze thaw cycles.
Stability / Shelf Life
12 months at -20°C. 1 month at 4°C.
Applications
TYMS antibody has been tested by ELISA and Western blot analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended dilution range for Western blot and Immunofluorescence analysis is 1:500 ~ 1000. Recommended starting dilution is 1:500.
