Background Information
Transcription factor EB(TFEB) is one of the transcription factors that contain a basic HLH-ZIP domain(for DNA binding ) and HLH and ZIP domains( for loigomerization). TFEB specifically recognizes and binds to E-box sequences, which required dimerization with itself or another MiT/TFE family member. It plays a role in T-cell-dependent antibody responses to activated CD4+ T-cells and thymus-dependent humoral immunity once associated with TFE3. It also activates lysosomal gene by binding the CLEAR-box sequence in the regulatory region. It involves in the signal transduction processes required for normal vascularization of the placenta. This is a rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against the full length of human TFEB. The calculated molecular weight of TFEB is 53 kDa, but modified TFEB is about 65-70 kDa (PMID: 12837690). TFEB mainly present in the cytoplasm (PubMed:23434374). Under aberrant lysosomal storage conditions, it translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus (PubMed:23434374). Fisetin increases the levels of TFEB localized in nuclei (PMID: 27112200).TFEB protein has double bands in the range of 65-70 kDa, which is mainly related to its post-translation modification (especially phosphorylation). The 70 kDa band represents phosphorylated TFEB, while the 65 kDa band represents dephosphorylated TFEB, and this phosphorylation state is regulated by mTORC1(PMID: 32950675).

Reviews
What customers say
Customers rate this TFEB antibody favorably, with most reviews giving 5 stars. It performs well in immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry, producing strong, clean signals with good subcellular localization, and works in organoids, mouse kidney sections, and mouse BMDMs. Western blot results are generally positive, with specific bands in HeLa and HEK293 lysates, often working on the first try. A few users noted drawbacks: some WB bands appeared blurry or multiple, and one reviewer saw two weak bands of unclear identity in primary mouse microglia. Overall, it is considered reliable for mouse applications and IF/IHC, with mixed results in certain WB contexts.
