ab227845 is the carrier-free version of ab52954.
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.
Tryptophan hydroxylase serves an important role in serotonin production which impacts mood regulation sleep and other functions. TPH operates primarily as a homotetramer and requires biopterin oxygen and iron for its activity. Serotonin synthesized as a result acts as a neurotransmitter and hormone influencing various physiological processes. The differential expression of TPH1 and TPH2 allows for compartmentalized regulation of serotonin synthesis addressing both peripheral and central nervous system needs.
Tryptophan Hydroxylase (TPH) is an enzyme that plays a critical mechanical role in the body. It is sometimes known as TPH or anti TPH. The enzyme catalyzes the conversion of tryptophan to 5-hydroxytryptophan the first and rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of serotonin. The molecular mass of TPH is approximately 55 kDa. TPH has two isoforms TPH1 and TPH2 which are expressed in different tissues. TPH1 is mainly found in peripheral tissues such as the gut pineal gland and thymus while TPH2 is expressed in the central nervous system particularly in the raphe nuclei of the brainstem.
TPH is central in the serotonin biosynthetic pathway a critical pathway for neuromodulation. It converts tryptophan into 5-hydroxytryptophan which is then decarboxylated to serotonin. TPH's function connects closely with other proteins in these pathways such as Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase which further processes 5-hydroxytryptophan into serotonin. This integration within the serotonin pathway highlights its importance in maintaining serotonin levels and consequently normal neurological function.
Tryptophan hydroxylase has associations with mood disorders and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Altered TPH activity may lead to disruptions in serotonin levels influencing development and progression of these conditions. Studies often link TPH2 with depression and anxiety due to its central neural expression and role in serotonin synthesis. Meanwhile TPH1 expressed in peripheral tissues has connections to IBS where serotonin significantly affects gut motility and sensitivity. The relationship between these disorders and TPH offers insights into therapeutic targets to modulate serotonin levels for treatment strategies.

This data was developed using ab52954, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human bladder carcinoma tissue sections labeling Tryptophan Hydroxylase/TPH with Purified ab52954 at 1:2000 dilution (1.191 µg/mL). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval using ab93684 (Tris/EDTA buffer, pH 9.0). Tissue was counterstained with Hematoxylin. ImmunoHistoProbe one step HRP Polymer (ready to use) secondary antibody was used. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the negative control.
Blocking and diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST
