TFB2M Antibody (2E10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects TFB2M protein of human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-TFB2M antibody (2E10) is available as a non-conjugated format. TFB2M, or transcription factor B2, mitochondrial, is a crucial 396 amino acid mitochondrial protein that plays a significant role in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression. TFB2M belongs to the rRNA adenine N(6)-methyltransferase family and is responsible for the specific dimethylation of mitochondrial 12S rRNA at a conserved stem loop, a modification essential for proper assembly and function of mitochondrial ribosomes. This post-translational modification influences stability and translation efficiency of mitochondrial mRNA, impacting overall protein synthesis within mitochondria. TFB2M is expressed ubiquitously and is required for basal transcription of mitochondrial DNA, demonstrating importance in cellular energy metabolism and maintenance of mitochondrial function. While TFB2M exhibits less methyltransferase activity compared to TFB1M, TFB2M is more efficient in activating mitochondrial DNA transcription, highlighting a unique regulatory role in mitochondrial biology.

Do you know if this antibody recognizes TFB2M from rat tissues?

Asked by: Anonymous
Thank you for your question. TFB2M is recommended for detection of TFB2M of human origin by WB, IP and ELISA. There is a 56% homology for rat .

For Western Blot, is it recommended to use denatured or non-denatured conditions with TFB2M (2E10): sc-517095 antibody?

Asked by: jenniferc
Thank you for your question. We recommend this antibody for use in denatured Western Blot conditions. It has not been validated for use in non-denatured conditions. Please contact our Technical Service Department for further details or inquiries.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not goodI bought this antibody and it does not work! It is supposed to show a band around 40 kDa but I see a lot of bands around 100 kDa

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not so goodI received the TFB2M antibody 15 days ago. I employed this antibody twice in western blot assay, with not good results. In one opportunity no bands were detected. In the next time a lot of background was detected. I will continue to test to get a better quilify image.
