TMPRSS2 antibody | knockout validation | Abcam ab109131

This is a knockout-validated antibody summary, based on publications "A CRISPR/Cas9 genetically engineered organoid biobank reveals essential host factors for coronaviruses", as cited below [1], and "Paeniclostridium sordellii hemorrhagic toxin targets TMPRSS2 to induce colonic epithelial lesions" for western blot knockout validation (figure 2d) [2]. Labome curates formal publications to compile a list of antibodies with unambiguous specificity within Validated Antibody Database (VAD).
