Designing an IHC experiment for TERF2IP? The guide has the expected staining pattern, antigen retrieval and fixation, antibodies backed by real IHC images, the tissue controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the TERF2IP IHC GuideFacts about Telomeric repeat-binding factor 2-interacting protein 1.
Instead, it is required to negatively regulate telomere recombination and is essential for repressing homology-directed repair (HDR), which may affect telomere length. Doesn't bind DNA directly: recruited to telomeric double-stranded 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeats through its interaction with TERF2.

Ubiquitous. Highly expressed.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Chromosome. Chromosome, telomere. Associates with chromosomes, both at telomeres and in extratelomeric sites. Also exists as a cytoplasmic form, where it associates with the IKK complex.
