Anti-TINF2 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein TERF1 interacting nuclear factor 2. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 451 amino acid residues and a mass of 50 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus. Up to 3 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably expressed in fetal brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. TINF2 is a known component of the shelterin complex (telosome) that is involved in the regulation of telomere length and protection. The TINF2 gene has been associated with the disease, Dyskeratosis congenita. Synonyms for this target antigen include TIN2, TERF1 (TRF1)-interacting nuclear factor 2, TRF1-interacting nuclear protein 2, and DKCA3. TINF2 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish and chimpanzee species. A number of Tinf2 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
