Anti-TRK fused gene/TFG Antibody Picoband®

Protein TFG is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TFG gene. There are several documented fusion oncoproteins encoded partially by this gene. This gene also participates in several oncogenic rearrangements resulting in anaplastic lymphoma and mixoid chondrosarcoma, and may play a role in the NF-kappaB pathway. Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene.
