    Product Information

    Product Usage Information

    This product is the carrier free version of product #15571. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol.

    This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN or CUT&Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

    BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.

    Formulation

    Supplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na2HPO4, 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH2PO4, and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free.

    For standard formulation of this product see product #15571

    Storage

    Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    TFF1/pS2 (D2Y1J) Rabbit mAb (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total TFF1/pS2 protein. This antibody does not cross-react with either TFF2 or TFF3 proteins.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Val33 of human TFF1/pS2 protein.

    Background

    The trefoil factor (TFF) family of proteins (TFF1/pS2, TFF2, and TFF3) are a group of highly conserved, secreted polypeptides that are expressed by mucus-secreting cells of the gastrointestinal tract. Within the gastrointestinal tract, TFFs display both common and distinct expression patterns (1). Collectively, the TFF family of proteins play a prominant role in the protection and repair of the mucous epithelia lining the gastrointestinal tract through their interactions with mucins (2). TFFs have been shown to regulate a number of cellular processes such as migration, apoptosis, and proliferation. In humans, dysregulated expression of TFFs has been observed in inflammatory bowel diseases as well as tumors of the breast, colon, lung, and stomach (2).
    TFF1/pS2 is a gastric peptide that is highly expressed by mucosal goblet cells of the stomach, where it is thought to play a role in maintaining the integrity of the epithelial layer of the mucosa through the regulation of cell-cell adhesion and cell migration (2,3). Research studies have shown that TFF1 functions as a tumor suppressor in the stomach as its expression is frequently lost in gastric carcinomas, largely due to promoter hypermethylation (4-8). Research studies have also demonstrated that TFF1 is a transcriptional target of estrogen receptor-α and that TFF1 expression in breast carcinoma may be used as a predictive biomarker for response to anti-estrogen therapy (9,10).
