Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes tubulin polymerization-promoting protein (gene TPPP) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 23.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 24 kDa.
Tubulin polymerization-promoting protein (TPPP, also called p25α) is a regulator of microtubule assembly expressed mainly in oligodendrocytes. It promotes microtubule nucleation at Golgi outposts and is needed for elongation of myelin sheaths. TPPP also accumulates in α-synuclein inclusions and is studied in multiple system atrophy and Parkinson disease.

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): HEL cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human TPPP fragment (Met1–Lys219), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places tubulin polymerization-promoting protein in the Golgi outpost, cytoplasm and nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Widely expressed. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
