Description

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

Synonyms

epidermodysplasia verrucormis 2; Epidermodysplasia verrucormis protein 2; EV2; EVIN2; FLJ40668; FLJ43684; MGC102701; MGC40121; TMC8; Transmembrane channel like protein 8; TMC8_HUMAN.

About

Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera.

Cross Reactive Species details

No significant cross reactivity has been observed for this antibody for the tested species. However, note that due to limited knowledge it is impossible to predict with 100% guarantee that the antibody does not corss react with any other species.

Advisory

Avoid freeze/thaw cycles as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody, thus reducing its reactivity, specificity and sensitivity. For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube. Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom.

Background information

Transmembrane channel-like protein 8 (TMC8), also known as Epidermodysplasia verruciformis protein 2 (EVER2), is a 726 amino acid member of the TMC family of proteins. Localized to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, TMC8 is thought to form a transmembrane channel-like protein with eight predicted transmembrane domains and three leucine zipper motifs. Mutations in the genes encoding TMC8 and TMC6, another member of the TMC family, have been shown to cause epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV), an autosomal recessive dermatosis characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and a high rate of progression to squamous cell carcinoma on sun-exposed skin. Infection by HPVs lead to persistent wart-like or macular lesions. TMC8 is expressed in placenta, prostate and testis, and three named isoforms exist as a result of alternative splicing events.
