Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 Antibody (1C3): sc-80487

Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 Antibody (1C3) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects the Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis origin by western blotting (WB). Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 (1C3) antibody is available as a non-conjugated format. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the leading cause of tuberculosis and poses a significant threat to global health as one of the most dangerous human pathogens. This bacterium is a Gram-positive, obligate anaerobe that replicates slowly, with a division time of approximately 16 to 20 hours, and can only thrive within a host organism, often remaining dormant for extended periods without manifesting any symptoms. When active, Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection can lead to severe symptoms such as a chronic cough with blood, night sweats, fever, weight loss, chest pain, and extreme fatigue. The Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacterium is equipped with various auxiliary proteins that enhance virulence and overall functionality, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43. Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 functions as a cell-associated pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenase, playing a crucial role in the regeneration of NADPH, which is essential for amino acid synthesis. The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 to facilitate this metabolic process is vital for bacterial survival and pathogenicity, making Mycobacterium tuberculosis TB43 an important target for research and therapeutic interventions.
