TRIM28, also known as KAP-1 or TIF1-beta, serves as a master regulator of gene silencing through its dual enzymatic activities as both an E3 ubiquitin and SUMO ligase. This multifunctional protein plays essential roles in heterochromatin formation, DNA damage response, and the repression of endogenous retroviruses, making it a critical target for researchers investigating epigenetic regulation, stem cell biology, and cancer progression.
This recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody, clone 6D2, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Generated against a synthetic peptide derived from human TRIM28, the recombinant format ensures sequence-defined specificity and eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations.
Validation across multiple detection platforms demonstrates this antibody's experimental versatility. Western blot analysis confirms robust detection in diverse human cell lines including HepG2, A431, U-251MG, COLO-205, Jurkat, A549, and MCF-7, as well as mouse brain tissue, supporting cross-species reactivity for comparative studies. The observed band at 122 kDa, higher than the predicted 89 kDa molecular weight, reflects the extensive post-translational modifications characteristic of TRIM28, including SUMOylation and phosphorylation events that regulate its transcriptional repressor functions. Immunohistochemistry validation in human lung cancer and testis tissues demonstrates clear nuclear staining patterns consistent with TRIM28's chromatin-associated functions, while flow cytometry analysis in Jurkat cells confirms utility for single-cell quantification approaches.
Whether investigating KRAB-zinc finger protein interactions, exploring retroviral silencing mechanisms, or characterizing TRIM28 dysregulation in malignancy, this antibody provides a reliable tool for advancing your research.
