Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects tyrosine-protein kinase Tec in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 73.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 74 kDa.
TEC is the founding member of the Tec family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, which also includes BTK and ITK. It acts downstream of antigen, cytokine and costimulatory receptors in T cells and B cells, largely overlapping with ITK and BTK, and it is studied in lymphocyte signaling and kinase inhibitor research.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HEL cells, human THP-1 cells, rat kidney tissue, mouse kidney tissue.
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.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the N-terminal region of human tec. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 97.5%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places tyrosine-protein kinase Tec in the cytoplasm and cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in a wide range of cells, including hematopoietic cell lines like myeloid, B-, and T-cell lineages. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
