TP73 encodes tumor protein p73, a member of the p53 family of transcription factors that plays critical roles in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and neuronal development. Unlike its more famous relative p53, TP73 exhibits complex biology through multiple isoforms with distinct and sometimes opposing functions—some variants promote apoptosis while others support cell survival. This functional diversity makes TP73 a compelling target for researchers investigating cancer biology, developmental processes, and the intricate regulatory networks governing cell fate decisions.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 2F8, offers the reproducibility that demanding research requires. Developed using recombinant technology with a defined sequence, it eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The rabbit host and monoclonal nature ensure high specificity against the human TP73 epitope, derived from a synthesized peptide of the human protein.
Validation in immunohistochemistry demonstrates reliable performance in paraffin-embedded human skin tissue, where the antibody was tested at 1:100 dilution using a Leica Bond system with citrate buffer antigen retrieval. This established protocol provides a solid starting point for researchers working with archival tissue samples, with recommended working dilutions of 1:50-1:200 allowing optimization flexibility for different tissue types and experimental conditions. The antibody is also validated for ELISA applications, extending its utility across different experimental platforms.
Supplied in a glycerol-containing buffer optimized for long-term stability at -20°C or -80°C, this antibody serves cell biology researchers exploring p53 family signaling, tumor suppressor mechanisms, and the molecular basis of cellular stress responses.
