Application Data:
TGM2 Antibody (Center K444)

Western blot analysis of TGM2 Antibody (Center K444) (Cat.#AP7826d) in K562 cell line lysates (35ug/lane). TGM2 (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab (1:60 dilution).

TGM2 Antibody (Center K444)

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human lung carcinoma tissue reacted with *TGM2 antibody (Center K444), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.

Background:
Transglutaminases are enzymes that catalyze the crosslinking of proteins by epsilon-gamma glutamyl lysine isopeptide bonds. While the primary structure of transglutaminases is not conserved, they all have the same amino acid sequence at their active sites and their activity is calcium-dependent. TGM2 acts as a monomer, is induced by retinoic acid, and appears to be involved in apoptosis. It has been identified as the autoantigen implicated in celiac disease.
