Cytosolic tripeptidyl-peptidase that releases N-terminal tripeptides from polypeptides and is a component of the proteolytic cascade acting downstream of the 26S proteasome in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. It plays an important role in intracellular amino acid homeostasis. The limitation of proteolytic products to tripeptides is achieved by tailoring the size of the substrate-binding cleft: the two negatively charged residues Glu-305 and Glu-331 that are blocking position P4 limit the number of residues that can be accommodated in the binding cleft and thus create a molecular ruler. At the same time, they orient substrates so that the tripeptides are removed exclusively from the N-terminus.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of SW620 cells labeling Tripeptidyl peptidase II with Rabbit anti-Tripeptidyl peptidase II antibody (HA722476) at 1/50 dilution.
Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS for 5 minutes at room temperature, then blocked with 1% BSA in 10% negative goat serum for 1 hour at room temperature.

Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (iFluor™ 488, HA1121) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control. Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.
Beta tubulin (M1305-2, red) was stained at 1/100 dilution overnight at +4℃. Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (iFluor™ 594, HA1126) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution.

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon cancer tissue with Rabbit anti-Tripeptidyl peptidase II antibody (HA722476) at 1/1,000 dilution.
The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0) for 20 minutes. The tissues were blocked in 1% BSA for 20 minutes at room temperature, washed with ddH2O and PBS, and then probed with the primary antibody (HA722476) at 1/1,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature. The detection was performed using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
