The UniProt recommended name is Thioredoxin domain-containing protein 3 (NME8). Also known as TXNDC3 or SPTRX2, this protein contains a thioredoxin-like domain and functions as part of the dynein regulatory complex involved in ciliary motility and organization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFunctionally, NME8 antibody identifies a 588-amino-acid protein localized to cilia and flagella, where it forms disulfide-linked complexes that maintain axonemal integrity. NME8 acts as a redox-active thioredoxin enzyme, regulating disulfide bond formation and stabilization of microtubule doublets. It is crucial for proper assembly of outer dynein arms, which generate the bending motion of motile cilia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe NME8 gene is located on chromosome 7p14.1 and is expressed in ciliated tissues such as respiratory epithelium, oviduct, and testis. Through its thioredoxin activity, NME8 supports sperm motility, mucociliary clearance, and left-right body asymmetry during embryonic development.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePathologically, mutations in NME8 cause primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), a disorder characterized by chronic respiratory infections, male infertility, and situs inversus due to impaired ciliary movement. Dysregulation of NME8 expression has also been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimerï¿½s, where it may influence axonal transport and oxidative stress. Research using NME8 antibody supports studies in ciliary biology, redox regulation, and cytoskeletal organization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNME8 antibody is validated for western blotting, immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry to detect ciliary structural and redox-regulating proteins. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStructurally, Thioredoxin domain-containing protein 3 contains an N-terminal thioredoxin fold and multiple coiled-coil regions that mediate protein dimerization and microtubule binding. This antibody enables detailed study of NME8's role in ciliary structure and redox homeostasis.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow cytometry:\u003c\/strong\u003e quantify target-positive populations and signal shifts at single-cell resolution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eELISA:\u003c\/strong\u003e support antibody-based quantification in assay formats where applicable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=NME8 - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=NME8 - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=NME8 - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/NME8 - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=NME8+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 ug\/ml \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53047313695085,"sku":"FY13162","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_b6d10418-f0d6-4681-bc9d-b75d91380d63.jpg?v=1782237099","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/nme8-antibody-txndc3-thioredoxin-domain-containing-protein-3-bha17136064","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
