Description: TBP (TATA-binding protein) is a general transcription factor that binds specifically to a DNA sequence called the TATA box. The TBP gene is mapped to 6q27. This DNA sequence is found about 35 base pairs upstream of the transcription start site in some eukaryotic gene promoters. TBP, along with a variety of TBP-associated factors, make up the TFIID, a general transcription factor that in turn makes up part of the RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex. As one of the few proteins in the preinitiation complex that binds DNA in a sequence-specific manner, it helps position RNA polymerase II over the transcription start site of the gene. However, it is estimated that only 10-20% of human promoters have TATA boxes. Therefore, TBP is probably not the only protein involved in positioning RNA polymerase II.

Immunogen: A recombinant mouse partial protein corresponding to amino acids L38-A107 was used as the immunogen for the Tbp antibody.

Storage: After reconstitution, the Tbp antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
