Biological background

Scientific background (datasheet): LTBR(Lymphotoxin B Receptor), also called TNFCR or LT-BETA-R, is a receptor for lymphotoxin which in humans is encoded by the LTBR gene. By linkage analysis with recombinant inbred mouse strains, Nakamura et al.(1995) demonstrated that the Tnfcr locus is close to the Tnfr1 gene on mouse chromosome 6. Presumably, the human homolog is located on 12p13. Silva-Santos et al.(2005) reported that double-positive T cells regulate the differentiation of early thymocyte progenitors and gamma-delta cells by a mechanism dependent on the transcription factor ROR-gamma-t and the lymphotoxin-beta receptor. Lo et al.(2007) identified lymphotoxin and LIGHT(TNFSF14), tumor necrosis factor cytokine family members that are primarily expressed on lymphocytes, as critical regulators of key enzymes that control lipid metabolism.

Research relevance and current trends

• Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
• Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).

Common research applications

• Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
• ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
• Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
• Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.

As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
