Background Information
TSC2, also named as TSC4, FLJ43106 and LAM, acts as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for the small GTPase RHEB, a direct activator of the protein kinase activity of mTORC1. In complex with TSC1, TSC2 inhibits the nutrient-mediated or growth factor-stimulated phosphorylation of S6K1 and EIF4EBP1 by negatively regulating mTORC1 signaling. TSC2 implicated as a tumor suppressor. It is involved in microtubule-mediated protein transport, but this seems to be due to unregulated mTOR signaling. TSC2 stimulates weakly the intrinsic GTPase activity of the Ras-related proteins RAP1A and RAB5 in vitro. Mutations in TSC2 lead to constitutive activation of RAP1A in tumors. Mutations in either TSC2 or the related TSC1 (hamartin) gene cause tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by development of multiple, widespread non-malignant tumors.

Reviews
What customers say
Both reviewers rated this antibody 5 stars for Western Blot. One used a 1:5000 dilution to check TSC2 knockout cells, while the other used 1:3000 to confirm TSC2 knockout in both human (eHap1) and mouse (IMCD3) cells. Both reported excellent performance, confirming the antibody's reliability for detecting TSC2 loss-of-function across species.
