Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

TCF-4 also known as TCF7L2 is a transcription factor that plays an important mechanical role in the Wnt signaling pathway. It is a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 66 kDa and is expressed in many tissues including the intestine pancreas and brain. TCF-4 acts by binding to DNA at specific sites and regulating the transcription of target genes. This transcription regulation occurs when TCF-4 partners with beta-catenin altering gene expression in response to Wnt signals.
Biological function summary

TCF-4 influences processes like cell proliferation differentiation and apoptosis. It functions as part of a transcriptional complex with members such as beta-catenin and other cofactors which are essential for its regulatory activities. Through its control of gene expression TCF-4 affects tissue homeostasis and has implications in embryonic development. It modulates the expression of genes that are involved in important cellular processes making it a significant player in maintaining cellular equilibrium.

Pathways

TCF-4 is essential in the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway a critical pathway that regulates cell fate and patterning during development. This pathway involves the accumulation of beta-catenin in the cytoplasm and its subsequent translocation into the nucleus. In the nucleus beta-catenin partners with TCF-4 to regulate gene transcription. Additionally TCF-4 interacts with other pathway proteins such as LEF1 (Lymphoid Enhancer-Binding Factor 1) to modulate Wnt target genes illustrating its integration within complex signaling networks.

TCF-4 has strong connections to type 2 diabetes and colorectal cancer. Variations in the TCF7L2 gene have been linked to increased risk of type 2 diabetes potentially due to its role in glucose metabolism. In colorectal cancer aberrant activation of the Wnt signaling pathway often involving TCF-4 and beta-catenin leads to uncontrolled cell growth. Understanding these connections can provide insights into the pathogenesis of these diseases and inform treatment strategies targeting TCF-4 and its associated pathways.

Target data

Participates in the Wnt signaling pathway and modulates MYC expression by binding to its promoter in a sequence-specific manner. Acts as a repressor in the absence of CTNNB1, and as activator in its presence. Activates transcription from promoters with several copies of the Tcf motif 5'-CCTTTGATC-3' in the presence of CTNNB1. TLE1, TLE2, TLE3 and TLE4 repress transactivation mediated by TCF7L2/TCF4 and CTNNB1. Expression of dominant-negative mutants results in cell-cycle arrest in G1. Necessary for the maintenance of the epithelial stem-cell compartment of the small intestine.
