Biological background
Functionally, TTC36 antibody identifies a 356-amino-acid protein rich in tetratricopeptide repeat sequences, which serve as recognition modules for chaperones and signaling enzymes. TTC36 interacts with cytoskeletal and membrane-associated proteins, suggesting roles in maintaining cell integrity and coordinating intracellular signaling. Its TPR domains likely promote conformational flexibility, enabling diverse binding partners.
The TTC36 gene is located on chromosome 6q22.33 and is expressed in epithelial tissues, gastrointestinal tract, and reproductive organs. Gene expression analyses indicate regulation by Wnt and TGF-beta pathways, implicating TTC36 in developmental and oncogenic signaling. Its expression in enterocytes and hepatocytes supports potential functions in nutrient transport or cellular adhesion.
Pathologically, altered TTC36 expression has been reported in several cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma and gastric cancer, where its downregulation correlates with increased tumor growth and metastasis. TTC36 is thought to act as a tumor suppressor by modulating signaling cascades that control cell proliferation and adhesion. Research with TTC36 antibody aids in exploring these molecular interactions and their impact on cancer progression.
TTC36 antibody is suitable for western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence to detect cytoplasmic TPR-containing scaffolds.
Structurally, TTC36 features tandem TPR motifs that create a solenoid-like architecture, enabling multipoint interactions with diverse proteins. This antibody supports detailed investigations into TTC36's scaffolding roles in intracellular communication and cancer biology.
Research relevance and current trends
- Connecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).
- Considering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.
- Comparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.
- Immunofluorescence: visualize subcellular distribution and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and signal shifts at single-cell resolution.
- ELISA: support antibody-based quantification in assay formats where applicable.
Interpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Signal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.
- Species differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.
Antibody notes: Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.
