Target
Topoisomerase II alpha (TOP2A)
(Topoisomerase (DNA) II alpha 170kDa (TOP2A))
This mAb recognizes an ~170 kDa protein which is identified as Topoisomerase IIa, and shows no cross-reaction with Topoisomerase IIb or I. Topo IIa plays important roles in synthesis and transcription of DNA as well as chromosomal segregation during mitosis. It is reported to be a sensitive and specific marker of late S-, G2- & M-phases in transformed and developmentally regulated normal cells. Topo IIa is also implicated in drug resistance of tumor cells.
