Topoisomerase II alpha Antibody / TOP2A

• Catalog Number: orb750178
• Category: Antibodies
• Description: This mAb recognizes a 170kDa protein which is identified as Topoisomerase IIa, and shows no cross-reaction with Topoisomerase IIb or I. Topo IIa plays important roles in synthesis and transcription of DNA as well as chromosomal segregation during mitosis. It is reported to be a sensitive and specific marker of late S-, G2- & M-phases in transformed and developmentally regulated normal cells. Topo IIa is also implicated in drug resistance of tumor cells.
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Species/Host: Mouse
• Isotype: Mouse IgG2b, kappa
• Conjugation: Unconjugated
• Reactivity: Human
• Immunogen: Human recombinant partial protein (amino acids 1352-1493) was used as the immunogen for this TOP2A antibody.
• UniProt ID: P11388
• Tested applications: IF, IHC, WB
• Dilution range: Immunofluorescence: 1-2ug/ml,Western blot: 1-2ug/ml,Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 1-2ug/ml (1)
• Application notes: The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the TOP2A antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.1.
