Biological background
FTCD (protein: T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 zeta chain) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Folate-dependent enzyme, that displays both transferase and deaminase activity. Serves to channel one-carbon units from formiminoglutamate to the folate pool. Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole . Golgi apparatus . More abundantly located around the mother centriole. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Ubiquitous.
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Metabolic Signaling Pathways,Metabolism,Organelles,Pathways and Processes,Signal Transduction,Subcellular Markers,Tags & Cell Markers.
- Current studies often focus on connecting target abundance/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.
- Quantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): evaluate spatial distribution of target-positive staining in tissue architecture.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and compare shifts in marker distributions.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate FTCD antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect FTCD expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect FTCD in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry, Quantify FTCD-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Apparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 78 kDa; calculated MW: 58927 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
Additional product details (from the source record)
- Molecular weight (observed): 78 kDa
- Cellular localization (provided): Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole . Golgi apparatus . More abundantly located around the mother centriole.
