REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions:
Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

TRIM21 also known as SS-A or Ro52 is a 52 kDa protein that plays a role in the immune system. It functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in the ubiquitination process. This protein is expressed in various tissues including immune cells like lymphocytes and macrophages. TRIM21 recognizes autoantibodies linked to TRIM21 activity particularly those targeting the SS-A complex. Researchers often use antibodies like anti-TRIM21 or anti-SS-A to study its interactions and effects in cellular processes.
Biological function summary
TRIM21 contributes significantly to the regulation of immune responses and participates in innate and adaptive immunity. It forms part of a complex with other proteins to facilitate the degradation of viral particles through the ubiquitin-proteasome system a process known as antibody-dependent intracellular neutralization. As an important player in the immune defense TRIM21 oversees the timely removal of pathogens and prevents potential overactivation of immune responses that might harm the host.
Pathways
TRIM21 operates within the interferon signaling and NF-κB pathways two important areas of immune response modulation. TRIM21 interacts with molecules like transcription factors that influence the expression of interferon-responsive genes which are critical for pathogen defense. Its role in these pathways highlights its interactions with various immune-regulatory proteins helping to maintain immune system balance and effectiveness during infections.
TRIM21 has strong associations with autoimmune conditions such as systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren's syndrome. Autoantibodies against TRIM21 are often used as biomarkers for these diseases and their presence can indicate increased autoimmunity. Relationship with other autoantigens like SS-A/Ro60 further connects TRIM21 with disease mechanisms suggesting its importance in the pathology of these autoimmune disorders. Understanding the role of TRIM21 in these diseases may improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
