| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Precautions | TNP2 Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | TNP2 |
|---|---|
| Function | Plays a key role in the replacement of histones to protamine in the elongating spermatids of mammals. In condensing spermatids, loaded onto the nucleosomes, where it promotes the recruitment and processing of protamines, which are responsible for histone eviction. |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11101}. Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11101}. Chromosome {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11101}. Note=Loaded onto the nucleosomes of condensing spermatids (By similarity). Nuclear import is mediated by IPO4. Nucleolar localization requires the protein to be phosphorylated (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11101, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11378} |
| Tissue Location | Expressed by spermatids (at protein level). |

Background
In the elongating spermatids of mammals, the conversion of nucleosomal chromatin to the compact, non-nucleosomal form found in the sperm nucleus is associated with the appearance of a small set of basic chromosomal transition proteins.

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
