Antigen	Telomerase catalytic subunit (hTERT)
Immunogen	This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1104-1123 of hTERT (genome data base accession number AF018167). Peptide sequence: S-R-K-L-P-G-T-T-L-T-A-L-E-A-A-A-N-P-A-L
Reaktivität	Human, Bovine, Mouse (Murine), Rat
Klonalität	Polyklonal
Format	Liquid (sterile filtered)
Beschreibung	T elomerase is a reverse transcriptase that adds telomeric repeats (TTAGGG) n to chromosomal ends, compensating for the telomere shortening that occurs with DNA replication. In normal human somatic cells, telomerase is repressed and telomeres progressively shorten, leading to limited lifespan and senescence. Reactivation of telomerase activity is associated with human cancer and cell immortalization. Approximately 85% of human cancers, including breast, prostate, stomach, bladder, colon, and liver cancer, have telomerase activity, whereas most normal somatic cells do not. The specificity of telomerase to human cancer has led to investigations of telomerase activity and expression as a tumor marker. For example, the presence of telomerase activity in human urine has been identified as a marker for human bladder carcinoma. Human telomerase consists of three major subunits: a catalytic protein subunit called hTERT (for human TElomerase Reverse Transcriptase), a template RNA called hTR, and telomerase-associated protein (TEP-1). TERT and hTR are minimally required to reconstitute telomerase activity in vitro. In human cells, hTR is constitutively expressed, TERT transcription is a primary mechanism for regulation of telomerase activity .
Wirt	Rabbit
Spezifität	This antiserum primarily detects hTERT, but several non-specific bands appear on immunoblots (Figure 1). In immunofluorescence microscopy assays, staining with anti-TERT-16 was specific to nuclei of cells with ectopic TERT expression.

Applikationshinweise	This affinity purified has been tested for use in immunoblotting (figure 1), immunoprecipitation (figure 2), and immunofluorescence microscopy (figure 3). In these assays, the antibody detects ectopically-expressed hTERT and high levels of endogenous hTERT. Although it has been reported that this antibody reacts against mouse TERT (mTERT) (see Drissi, et al. 2001), the binding to mTERT is considerably weaker and less specific than the binding to hTERT (not shown). A SY5Y cell nuclear extract can be used as a positive control. The anti-hTERT antibody was used for both immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting. Anti-hTERT antibody was able to immunoprecipitate TERT protein from cells with ectopic hTERT expression (lane 4). The preimmune serum was unable to immunoprecipate TERT protein (lanes 1 and 2). Recommended Dilutions : In immunoblot assays, whole cell or nuclear extracts were loaded at a concentration of 100 ug protein per well. A working dilution of 1:500 anti-TERT antibody was used followed by a 1:3,000 dilution of horseradish peroxidase- conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG as the secondary antibody. For immunofluorescence microscopy staining, a working dilution of 1:500 was used followed by a 1:200 dilution of rhodamine-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit IgG as a secondary antibody. Immunoprecipitation was performed using 20 ul of protein A beads and 2 ul of the anti-TERT serum per 1mg protein from cell lysate. A working dilution of 1:500 is also suggested for immunohistochemistry.
