Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets tigger transposable element-derived protein 6 (gene TIGD6) in human and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 58.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 59 kDa.
TIGD6 is a human protein derived from an ancient Tigger DNA transposon of the pogo family. Tigger-derived proteins contain DNA-binding domains related to the centromere protein CENP-B. The biological function of TIGD6 has not been fully characterized.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human T-47D cells, human U-87MG cells, human A549 cells, human MCF-7 cells, rat testis 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.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): Daudi cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human TIGD6 fragment (Glu16–Asp511), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and rat. UniProt places tigger transposable element-derived protein 6 in the nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
