{"product_id":"cst-27498sf","title":"CST,  27498SF, Topoisomerase II alpha (D10G9) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying TOP2A. Validated for WB,IHC,IF,F. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, Topoisomerase II alpha (D10G9) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #27498) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis product is the carrier free version of product #12286. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT\u0026amp;RUN or CUT\u0026amp;Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. For standard formulation of this product see product # 12286\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze\/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nTopoisomerase II alpha (D10G9) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total topoisomerase IIα protein.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Monkey\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human topoisomerase IIα protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nDNA topoisomerases I and II are nuclear enzymes; type II consists of two highly homologous isoforms: topoisomerase IIα and IIβ. These enzymes regulate the topology of DNA, maintain genomic integrity, and are essential for processes such as DNA replication, recombination, transcription, and chromosome segregation by allowing DNA strands to pass through each other (1). Topoisomerase I nicks and rejoins one strand of the duplex DNA, while topoisomerase II transiently breaks and closes double-stranded DNA (2). Topoisomerases are very susceptible to various stresses. Acidic pH or oxidative stress can convert topoisomerases to DNA-breaking nucleases, causing genomic instability and cell death. DNA-damaging topoisomerase targeting drugs (e.g., etoposide) also convert topoisomerases to nucleases, with the enzyme usually trapped as an intermediate that is covalently bound to the 5+ end of the cleaved DNA strand(s). Research studies have shown that this intermediate leads to genomic instability and cell death. Thus, agents that target topoisomerases are highly sought after cancer chemotherapeutic drugs (3). Ca -regulated phosphorylation of topoisomerase IIα at Ser1106 modulates the activity of this enzyme and its sensitivity to targeting drugs (4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nDNA gyrase; DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolyzing); DNA topoisomerase 2-alpha; DNA topoisomerase II alpha; DNA topoisomerase II, 170 kD; DNA topoisomerase II, alpha isozyme; TOP2; TOP2A; topoisomerase (DNA) II alpha 170kDa; TP2A\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 190\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797979156649,"sku":"27498SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-27498sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
