General description

Transmembrane protein 106B (TMEM106B) is a single-pass type II membrane protein present in endosomal and lysosomal membranes, and is highly expressed in the frontal cortex. Increased TMEM106B expression in the brain may be linked to mechanisms of disease in frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) inclusions (FTLD-TDP). Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is the second most common cause of presenile dementia.

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to the N-terminus of human TMEM106B.

Epitope: N-terminus

Target description

~30 kDa observed (At higher antibody concentrations, this protein may be observed at ~45 kDa). This protein may be observed at ~50 kDa due to glycosylation (Lang, C. M., et al. (2012). J Biol Chem. 287(23):19355-19365.).
