Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 12 (gene PTPN12) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 88.1 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 110 kDa.
PTP-PEST (PTPN12) is a cytoplasmic tyrosine phosphatase that dephosphorylates kinases such as ERBB2 (HER2) and PYK2, as well as focal adhesion proteins. By limiting these signals it influences cell migration and growth factor signaling, and it is studied as a regulator of cell motility and in breast cancer.

Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): K562 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human PTPN12 fragment (Ala276–Asp311), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 12 in the cytoplasm, cell junction and cell projection. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
