Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets ubiquitin thioesterase otulin in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 40.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 43–45 kDa.
OTULIN (also called FAM105B or Gumby) is a deubiquitinase that cuts only linear, Met1-linked polyubiquitin. It mainly keeps the LUBAC ligase complex in check by removing its self-attached linear chains, which limits NF-κB-driven inflammation; loss of OTULIN causes a severe autoinflammatory syndrome, and the enzyme also contributes to Wnt signaling and angiogenesis.

Immunogen
Recombinant human OTULIN fragment (Ala49–Leu352), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places ubiquitin thioesterase otulin in the cytoplasm. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
