The TAR Polyclonal Antibody (PAC034702) is a valuable tool for research involving the TAR protein, a vital component in HIV-1 replication and transcription. This antibody, produced in rabbits, demonstrates high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in various applications, including Western blotting. By binding specifically to the TAR protein, this antibody enables accurate detection and analysis in diverse cell types, facilitating research in virology and infectious diseases.TAR, also known as trans-activating response element, plays a crucial role in the regulation of HIV-1 gene expression, making it a key target for antiviral drug development and understanding viral replication mechanisms.
Research on TAR is essential for developing novel therapies to combat HIV/AIDS and improve treatment outcomes. The TAR Polyclonal Antibody is a reliable tool for researchers exploring the molecular mechanisms of HIV-1 replication and identifying potential targets for antiviral interventions.

Background:
Receptor for the attractant L-aspartate and related amino and dicarboxylic acid,. Tar also mediates taxis to the attractant maltose via an interaction with the periplasmic maltose binding protein. Tar mediates taxis away from the repellents cobalt and nickel. Chemotactic-signal transducers respond to changes in the concentration of attractants and repellents in the environment, transduce a signal from the outside to the inside of the cell, and facilitate sensory adaptation through the variation of the level of methylation. Attractants increase the level of methylation while repellents decrease the level of methylation, the methyl groups are added by the methyltransferase CheR and removed by the methylesterase CheB.
Synonyms:
Methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein II (MCP-II) (Aspartate chemoreceptor protein), tar, cheM
UniProt Protein Function:

NCBI Summary:
Tar senses maltose indirectly through periplasmic maltose binding protein. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10988]. Tar is a chemoreceptor which senses aspartate and exists as a functional homodimer . [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10988].
