The TRIM8 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO57480) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the TRIM8 protein, known for its role in immune regulation and anti-viral responses. This antibody is produced in rabbits and shows high reactivity with human samples, making it an ideal choice for Western blot applications. By targeting the TRIM8 protein, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, providing valuable insights for immunology and virology research.TRIM8, a member of the TRIM protein family, has been implicated in various cellular processes, including immune signaling and antiviral defense mechanisms.
Its involvement in these pathways makes it a key target for investigating diseases related to immune dysfunction and viral infections. By using the TRIM8 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can gain a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying these conditions and potentially identify new therapeutic strategies for combating them.
Immunofluorescence staining of HepG2 cells with PACO57480 at 1:133, counter-stained with DAPI. The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, permeabilized using 0.2% Triton X-100 and blocked in 10% normal Goat Serum. The cells were then incubated with the antibody overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody was Alexa Fluor 488-congugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG(H+L).
IHC image of PACO57480 diluted at 1:400 and staining in paraffin-embedded human kidney tissue performed on a Leica BondTM system. After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum 30min at RT. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a biotinylated secondary antibody and visualized using an HRP conjugated SP system.

NCBI Summary:
This gene encodes a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) protein family. Based on similarities to other proteins, the encoded protein is suspected to be an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. Regulation of this gene may be altered in some cancers. Mutations resulting in a truncated protein product have been observed in early-onset epileptic encephalopathy (EOEE).
