Anti-TERT Antibody

TERT (Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase) is the catalytic protein subunit of the telomerase ribonucleoprotein complex, which adds repetitive DNA sequences to chromosome ends to counteract telomere shortening during cell division. This rabbit polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com recognizes the human TERT protein and is supplied as 100 µl of unconjugated reagent in a vial format, suitable for western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows.

The reagent is raised in rabbit and binds endogenous human TERT, making it a useful tool for studies of telomerase regulation, cellular senescence, and tumor biology. In western blot applications it can be used to detect the full-length TERT polypeptide in cell lysates, while immunohistochemistry allows visualization of TERT expression in fixed tissue sections, where staining intensity is often assessed as a marker of telomerase reactivation in cancer cells and stem cell populations.

For research use only, this primary antibody supports investigations into aging, oncogenesis, and regenerative biology, where telomerase activity and TERT expression serve as key readouts of cellular immortality and proliferative capacity.
