TK2 Antibodies

AND TK2 ELISA kits, TK2 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect TK2, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with TK2 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop TK2 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to TK2 by testing them on tissues known to express TK2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the TK2 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 3 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

TK2 Overview

Facts about Thymidine kinase 2, mitochondrial.

TK2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Thymidine kinase 2, mitochondrial (TK2)

Phosphorylates thymidine, deoxycytidine, and deoxyuridine from the mitochondrial matrix. In non-replicating cells, where cytosolic dNTP synthesis is down-regulated, mtDNA synthesis is dependent solely on TK2 and DGUOK.

Widely used as target of antiviral and chemotherapeutic agents. .
