{"product_id":"ts-antibody-sc-f4033","title":"Thymidylate Synthase Antibody","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Target\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThymidylate synthase (TS) catalyzes the reductive methylation of deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) to thymidylate (TMP), using 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate as the methyl donor. This reaction represents the sole de novo pathway for intracellular TMP production, a nucleotide that is indispensable for DNA synthesis and repair. Inhibition of TS results in thymidylate depletion, triggering thymineless death-a process marked by extensive DNA damage, chromosomal abnormalities, and apoptosis. Depending on the literature source, TS may also be discussed as Thymidylate Synthase and OK\/SW-cl.29.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReported cellular context includes cytoplasm, membrane, mitochondrion, and mitochondrion inner membrane, which can matter when signal is compared across treatments or changing cell states. Following TS across matched perturbations can help separate abundance effects from shifts in localization, complex assembly, or pathway state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch Context\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTS is commonly interpreted in the context of cancer research, and readouts are often stronger when a study separates expression changes from compartment-level redistribution. When reported signal spans cytoplasm, membrane, and mitochondrion, a defined reference condition can make comparisons more interpretable across perturbations, passages, or replicate sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConsider these angles when interpreting target-level changes:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eapparent redistribution between cytoplasm, membrane, and mitochondrion across matched conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003echanges associated with proliferative state, oncogenic signaling, or treatment response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eco-patterning with orthogonal markers and control conditions that clarify pathway state\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etime-matched comparisons so changes reflect biology rather than handling or sampling drift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVariant Considerations\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf your project spans exploratory questions, the regular version offers a balanced option for establishing baseline signal behavior for TS. This can help when protocols evolve over time and the goal is to compare experiments using a stable reference workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandardize sampling time, control choice, and downstream analysis thresholds so apparent differences in TS reflect biology rather than handling. When interpreting TS, it is often useful to decide early whether the main question is overall abundance, compartmental enrichment, or context-dependent redistribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor multi-run studies, a shared reference condition can keep TS trends easier to compare across datasets. That kind of consistency is especially helpful when follow-up work expands to new perturbations, model systems, or longitudinal collections.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Selleck Chemicals","offers":[{"title":"20 µl","offer_id":57578055631193,"sku":"F4033-20UL","price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 µl","offer_id":57578055663961,"sku":"F4033-100UL","price":379.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 × 100 µl","offer_id":57578055696729,"sku":"F4033-2X100UL","price":579.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/1011\/0553\/files\/F4033-IF.png?v=1773601619","url":"https:\/\/absource.de\/products\/ts-antibody-sc-f4033","provider":"Absource Diagnostics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
