General description

Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is the catalytic subunit of the telomerase. It is also responsible for addition of TTAGGG repeats to the telomere ends of the chromosome, which is important in maintaining cell immortality. In most normal human cells the expression of hTERT is very low. On the other hand, greater than 90 % of human tumors of different pathology and origins have been shown to upregulate telomerase expression, making hTERT a cancer-associated target.
~90 kDa observed.
Three isoforms exist for human TERT: Isoform 1 at 127 kDa, Isoform 2 at 90 kDa, and Isoform 3 at 120 kDa

Immunogen

Full length recombinant protein corresponding to human TERT.

Application

Anti-TERT (human) Antibody, clone 2C4 is an antibody against TERT (human) for use in WB, IC & IP.
Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory to detect TERT in HeLa cells (Masutomi, K., et al. (2003). Cell, Vol. 114:241–253).

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory to detect TERT in HeLa cells, BJ and WI-38 fibroblasts (Masutomi, K., et al. (2003). Cell, Vol. 114:241–253).

Physical form

Format: Purified

Analysis Note

Evaluated by Western Blot in human lymph node tissue lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: A 1:2,000 dilution of this antibody detected TERT in 10 µg of human lymph node tissue lysate.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and the enzymes that synthesize it, cystathionine-b-synthase, cystathionine γ-lyase, and 3-mercaptopyruvate, are increased in different human malignancies. Due to its short half-life, H2S concentrations have not been directly measured in a human malignancy. Here we directly measured
