Background of TYMS

Thymidylate synthase catalyzes the methylation of deoxyuridylate to deoxythymidylate using 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (methylene-THF) as a cofactor. This function maintains the dTMP (thymidine-5-prime monophosphate) pool critical for DNA replication and repair. The enzyme has been of interest as a target for cancer chemotherapeutic agents. It is considered to be the primary site of action for 5-fluorouracil, 5-fluoro-2-prime-deoxyuridine, and some folate analogs. Expression of this gene and that of a naturally occurring antisense transcript rTS alpha vary inversely when cell-growth progresses from late-log to plateau phase. Diseases associated with Thymidylate synthase include Rectal Neoplasm and Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase Deficiency. Anti-Thymidylate synthase is useful for researchers interested in Circadian Rhythm, Metabolism and cell cycle research.

Antibody Validation

Assay Dilutions Recommendation

The recommendations below provide a starting point for assay optimization. The actual working concentration varies and should be decided by the user.

ELISA: 1:20,000 - 1:100,000
IHC: User optimized
WB: 1:500 - 1:2,000
Anti-Thymidylate Synthase has been tested by western blot and is suitable for use in ELISA, immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence microscopy, immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting.  The antibody recognizes the expected additional band corresponding to the ternary complex of hTS-dFUMP-reduced folate in HeLa cells treated with the TS inhibitor 5-FUdR.  This event occurs in most human breast, colorectal, gastric, head and neck carcinomas.  The antibody recognizes the 36,000 MW hTS.  Reactivity in other immunoassays is unknown.
