    SEE ALSO...

    TUG Antibody (4A11A6G11) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b kappa light chain antibody that detects TUG protein of mouse origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry. TUG monoclonal antibody (4A11A6G11) is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. TUG protein, also known as ASPL in humans, plays a critical role in regulating glucose trafficking via glucose transporter Glut4, which is a twelve-pass transmembrane protein. Proper functioning of Glut4 is essential for maintaining glucose homeostasis, and aberrant expression has been linked to metabolic disorders such as obesity and diabetes. Studies on Glut4 null mice indicate that functional Glut4 is not strictly necessary for normal glucose levels, yet remains vital for sustained growth, normal cellular glucose and fat metabolism, and overall longevity. TUG forms a complex with Glut4 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, which remains intact in unstimulated cells but disassembles upon insulin stimulation. This mechanism allows TUG to trap endocytosed Glut4 and tether intracellularly, with insulin acting to mobilize this retained pool of Glut4 by releasing the tether, thereby facilitating glucose uptake in response to metabolic demands.

    Are there any issues with using sc-53952: TUG (4A11A6G11) mouse monoclonal primary antibody on mouse samples?

    Asked by: Professor Griffin
    Thank you for your inquiry. The use of mouse monoclonal antibodies with mouse samples is very common and typically poses no problem. To eliminate any potential cross-reactivity of an anti-mouse secondary detection reagent,we recommend using a directly conjugated primary antibody. Please contact our special orders department for pricing and availability of sc-53952 conjugates.
