TDP-43, encoded by the TARDBP gene, is a highly conserved DNA and RNA-binding protein that plays essential roles in transcriptional regulation, RNA splicing, and mRNA stability. This nuclear protein has emerged as a central focus in neurodegenerative disease research, particularly as cytoplasmic TDP-43 aggregates serve as the defining pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. Understanding TDP-43 localization, expression levels, and post-translational modifications is critical for researchers investigating neurodegeneration mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
This recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody, clone 6B3, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Generated against a synthetic peptide derived from human TDP-43 and produced through recombinant technology, this antibody provides sequence-defined specificity with minimal lot-to-lot variation, ensuring your experimental results remain comparable across extended studies.
Extensive validation demonstrates reliable performance across multiple platforms. Western blot analysis confirms detection of the expected 45 kDa band across a diverse panel of human cell lines including HeLa, SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma, K562, HepG2, U-251MG glioma, A549, and HEK-293 cells, as well as rat brain tissue lysate, confirming cross-species reactivity. Immunohistochemistry validation in paraffin-embedded human glioma tissue shows clear nuclear staining patterns, while flow cytometry analysis in HeLa cells demonstrates robust signal separation from isotype controls.
Whether you are characterizing TDP-43 expression in neuronal models, investigating its mislocalization in disease states, or screening potential modulators of TDP-43 pathology, this antibody delivers the flexibility to move seamlessly between biochemical, histological, and cytometric workflows in your ALS and neurodegeneration research.
