Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): Receptor with high affinity for TNFSF2/TNF-alpha and approximately 5-fold lower affinity for homotrimeric TNFSF1/lymphotoxin-alpha. The TRAF1/TRAF2 complex recruits the apoptotic suppressors BIRC2 and BIRC3 to TNFRSF1B/TNFR2 (By similarity). .
Scientific background (datasheet): TNFRSF1B (Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Subfamily Member 1B), also known as TNFR2 or TNFBR, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFRSF1B gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, which also contains TNFRSF1A. By linkage analysis, Santee and Owen Schaub (1996) confirmed the mapping of the TNFR2 gene to 1p36.3-p36.2. TNFBR (TNFR75) is the larger of the 2 TNF receptors. It is present on many cell types, especially those of myeloid origin, and is strongly expressed on stimulated T and B lymphocytes. Beltinger et al. (1996) noted that TNFR2 is the main TNF receptor found on circulating T cells and is the major mediator of autoregulatory apoptosis in CD8+ cells. TNFR2 may act with TNFR1 to kill nonlymphoid cells.
Cellular localization (datasheet): Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Apoptosis,Associated Proteins,Cancer,Cell Biology,Cell Death,Growth Factors/Hormones,Receptors,Signal Transduction.
- Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
- Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
- ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
- Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.
As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.
