Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects tumor protein p73 (gene TP73) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 69.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 73 kDa.
p73 (TP73) is a transcription factor of the p53 family. Isoforms with a transactivation domain can promote apoptosis after DNA damage, whereas ΔN isoforms lacking this domain oppose p53 and full-length p73. p73 is also needed for the development of multiciliated cells and parts of the nervous system, and it is studied in cancer and neurodevelopment.

Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): HeLa cells, MCF-7 cells, COLO320 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human intestinal cancer tissue, rat brain tissue, mouse intestine tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Recombinant human p73 fragment (Met1–Glu198), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse ortholog: 96%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places tumor protein p73 in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in striatal neurons of patients with Huntington disease (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
