Rabbit TTP Polyclonal Antibody | anti-TTP antibody
TTP Antibody
Appearance: Colorless liquid
Shelf Life: 12 months
Background: Tristetraprolin (TTP), also known as Nup475 and TIS11, is a zinc-binding protein encoded by the immediate-early response gene, Zfp-36. Stimulation of quiescent fibroblasts by mitogens, including platelet derived growth factor and fibroblast growth factor, results in the serine phosphorylation of TTP and the rapid redistribution of the protein from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. in vitro studies have demonstrated that TTP is phosphorylated by p42 MAP kinase, indicating that the activity of TTP may be regulated by the MAP kinase pathway in vivo. Knockout mice deficient in TTP develop autoimmunity, inflammatory arthritis and dermatitis. These conditions can be reversed by blocking the activity of the inflammatory mediator, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), suggesting that TTP may function to negatively regulate the expression of TNF-alpha.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
TTP: a CCCH zinc finger protein that has anti-inflammatory and arthritis suppressor activity. Regulates inflammatory responses at the post-transcriptional level. TTP deficiency in mice causes a severe inflammatory syndrome that includes autoimmunity, myeloid hyperplasia, and erosive arthritis. Binds to and destabilizes mRNA molecules with AU-rich elements (AREs). Has a high affinity for UUAUUUAUU mRNA sequences. Destabilizes tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF??), interleukin 2 (IL2), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), transcription factor E47, and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) mRNAs. TNF?? and GM-CSF mRNAs are stabilized in TTP-deficient mice, causing a severe inflammatory syndrome. Conversely, high levels of TTP reduce inflammatory responses. TTP is a very low abundance protein that is rapidly induced by insulin, glucocorticoids, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), fetal calf serum, zinc, herpes simplex virus 1, green tea, and cinnamon. Once induced, the TTP protein is relatively stable. Has been experimentaly shown to be able to bind zinc. TTP is extensively phosphorylated.

Product Notes
The TTP zfp36 (Catalog #AAA840866) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The TTP Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's TTP can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western blot: 1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TTP zfp36 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "TTP, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
