TBK1 in Human Prostate Cancer Tissue. TBK1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human prostate cancer tissue using Sheep Anti-Human TBK1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF9934) at 3 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in epithelial cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.

Preparation and Storage

Background: TBK1

TANK binding kinase-1 (TBK1), encoded by the TBK1 gene, is a multimeric Serine/threonine-protein kinase that mediates a crosstalk between the innate immune response and autophagy. TBK1 was first identified as a TANK-interacting protein controlling NF-kappa B-mediated responses. Mutations in TBK1 have been found in conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and childhood herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE). Gain-of-function of TBK1 are associated with NTG, whereas loss-of-function mutations result in ALS/FTD or in HSE.
