Product Specifications

Immunogen

Peptide (C) 441-448 coupled to maleimide-activated keyhole limpet hemocyanin via cysteine added to the N-terminus of the neuron-specific peptide.

Reactivity Notes

Please note that this antibody is reactive to Mouse and derived from the same host, Mouse. Mouse-On-Mouse blocking reagent may be needed for IHC and ICC experiments to reduce high background signal. You can find these reagents under catalog numbers PK-2200-NB and MP-2400-NB. Please contact Technical Support if you have any questions. Rat reactivity reported in scientific literature (PMID: 23984759).

Specificity

The antibody TU-20 recognizes C-terminal peptide sequence ESESQGPK (aa 441-448) of neuron-specific human betaIII-tubulin.

Background: beta-III Tubulin

Beta-III Tubulin is abundant in the central and peripheral nervous systems where it is prominently expressed during fetal and postnatal development. Beta III Tubulin is often referred to as TUJ1 because Tuj-1 is the clone name of the original monoclonal antibody. The Tuj1 clone is such a popular neuronal marker that Tuj-1 is now used as a synonym for beta III tubulin. The distribution of Tubulin Beta 3 is neuron-associated, exhibiting distinct temporospatial gradients according to the regional neuroepithelia of origin. However, transient expression of the Tubulin Beta 3 protein is also present in the subventricular zones of the CNS comprising putative neuronal- and/or glial precursor cells, as well as in Kulchitsky neuroendocrine cells of the fetal respiratory epithelium. This temporally restricted, potentially non-neuronal expression may have implications in the identification of presumptive neurons derived from embryonic stem cells. Mutation on beta-tubulin has been linked to anti-cancer drug resistance in lung cancers.
