Notes

ab280962 is the carrier-free version of Anti-Thyroxine Binding Globulin antibody [EPR24453-121] ab280954.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

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.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Thyroxine Binding Globulin (TBG) also called globulin 23 is a glycoprotein that binds thyroid hormones primarily thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). It facilitates the transport of these hormones through the bloodstream to various tissues. This binding globulin has a molecular weight of approximately 54 kDa. TBG is predominantly expressed in the liver and is an essential component within the circulatory system for hormone regulation. Although there is no substance called 'globulin green' TBG plays an important role in maintaining the systemic balance of thyroid hormones.

Biological function summary

The thyroxine-binding globulin helps maintain adequate levels of thyroid hormones in circulation ensuring a ready reserve supply to target tissues. TBG acts as a carrier protein and does not form part of a larger complex. It provides stability to the hormones and prevents their premature clearance from the bloodstream. Without it the availability and functionality of thyroid hormones within the body would be compromised affecting metabolic and growth functions.

Pathways

Thyroxine-binding globulin is critical in the thyroid hormone signaling pathway. This pathway regulates metabolism growth and development through the action of thyroid hormones. TBG is closely related to other hormone-binding proteins such as transthyretin and albumin which also participate in thyroid hormone transport albeit with different affinities. Its presence ensures that these hormones remain available for cellular uptake and action within various tissues influencing energy expenditure and developmental processes.

Associated diseases and disorders

The function and levels of thyroxine-binding globulin have significant implications in conditions like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. Altered TBG levels either due to genetic variations or external factors can lead to abnormal blood concentrations of thyroid hormones affecting growth and metabolism. In such disorders the interaction between TBG and thyroid hormones becomes critical. TBG levels can be influenced by other proteins like sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) which may reflect changes in the hormone-binding protein landscape during disease states contributing to dysregulated hormonal balance.
