TdT Antibody (DA109)
TdT Antibody (DA109)
Recombinant monoclonal rabbit antibody
Description
TdT (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase) is a template-independent DNA polymerase that adds nucleotides randomly to single-stranded DNA. This randomization plays a role in acquired immunity by increasing antigen receptor diversity and aiding in the generation of immunoglobulins and T-cell antigen receptors.1 TdT expression is characteristic of lymphoid progenitor cells in thymus and tonsils.2 Anti-TdT is a useful marker for lymphoblastic lymphomas3 and has been observed in some cases of acute myeloid leukemia.4
