Mechanistic Insights from TFDP2 Research

TFDP2 forms heterodimers with E2F transcription factors to regulate:

  1. Cell Cycle Progression:

    • Promotes G1-S phase transition via cyclin A and DHFR genes .

    • Inhibits terminal differentiation in erythroblasts by repressing E2F2 target genes .

  2. Pathological Roles:

    • PRRSV Infection: TFDP2 upregulation by viral N protein enhances viral replication .

    • Erythropoiesis: TFDP2 knockdown disrupts hemoglobin synthesis and delays enucleation .

  3. Immune Infiltration:

    • Correlates with B cells, neutrophils, and dendritic cells in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) .

Western Blot Protocol

  1. Sample Preparation:

    • Lysate cells in RIPA buffer, resolve proteins via SDS-PAGE.

  2. Membrane Transfer:

    • Transfer to nitrocellulose, block with 5% milk/TBS.

  3. Antibody Incubation:

    • Primary: 0.5 μg/mL HRP-TFDP2 antibody (4°C, overnight).

    • Secondary: Goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP (1:5000, RT, 1.5 h).

  4. Detection:

    • Use ECL reagent; visualize at 49 kDa .

ELISA Protocol

  1. Coating:

    • Coat plates with TFDP2 antigen (50 ng/well).

  2. Blocking:

    • Block with 1% BSA/PBS.

  3. Detection:

    • Incubate with HRP-TFDP2 antibody (1:500–1:1000), develop with TMB substrate .

Clinical and Diagnostic Relevance

TFDP2 antibodies, including HRP-conjugated variants, are critical in:

  • Cancer Research: Prognostic biomarker for PAAD and immune cell infiltration .

  • Viral Pathogenesis: Monitoring TFDP2 upregulation in PRRSV-infected cells .

  • Hematopoiesis: Studying erythroid differentiation defects .

Critical Considerations

  1. Optimal Dilution:

    • Titrate antibody for each assay type to minimize background .

  2. Cross-reactivity:

    • Verify reactivity with target species (e.g., human vs. mouse) .

  3. Storage Stability:

    • Avoid freeze-thaw cycles; store at -20°C .

Target Background

Function

This antibody targets TFDP2, a transcription factor that stimulates E2F-dependent transcription. It cooperatively binds DNA with E2F family members via the E2 recognition site (5'-TTTC[CG]CGC-3') located in the promoter regions of genes involved in cell cycle regulation and DNA replication. The TFDP2:E2F complex plays a crucial role in G1 to S phase cell cycle progression. The E2F1:DP complex is implicated in both cell proliferation and apoptosis. Furthermore, TFDP2 inhibits adipocyte differentiation by repressing CEBPA binding to its target gene promoters.
