Western blot - Anti-TROP2 antibody [EPR20043] (AB214488)
Western blot : Anti-TACSTD2 antibody [EPR20043] (ab214488) staining at 1/2000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-CANX [CANX/1543] (ab238078) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab214488 was shown to bind specifically to TACSTD2. A band was observed at 36-70 kDa in wild-type MCF7 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in TACSTD2 knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and TACSTD2 knockout MCF7 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3% milk in TBS-0.1% Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.|

Biological function summary
TROP2 mediates calcium signaling and cell proliferation. It functions by being a part of a signaling complex on the cell membrane which affects multiple cellular activities such as cell growth motility and survival. Its role in maintaining the integrity of the epithelial cell layer also shows TROP2's significance in normal tissue homeostasis. The interaction of TROP2 with the extracellular matrix and other cell surface proteins support the structural integrity and communication between cells.
Pathways
TROP2 plays a central role in the PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways that regulate cell growth and survival. Within these pathways TROP2 works in concert with proteins like ERK and AKT important for transmitting extracellular signals into appropriate cellular responses. These pathways are key regulators of many physiological processes including cell cycle progression and apoptosis prevention.
