Description
Rabbit IgG polyclonal Picoband? antibody for Caveolin-2(CAV2) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P, IHC-F, ICC, FCM in Human;Mouse. No cross reactivity with other proteins. Caveolin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CAV2 gene. It is mapped to 7q31.1-q31.2. The protein encoded by this gene is a major component of the inner surface of caveolae, small invaginations of the plasma membrane, and is involved in essential cellular functions, including signal transduction, lipid metabolism, cellular growth control and apoptosis. This protein may function as a tumor suppressor. Caveolin-2 is a protein related to caveolin-1 which is derived caveolin-enriched membranes. CAV2 and CAV1 are similar in most respects and they differ in their functional interactions with heterotrimeric G proteins. Both of them are expressed in neuronal cells. Caveolin-2 was upregulated in response to neuronal cell injury.
Immunogen
E.coli-derived human Caveolin-2 recombinant protein (Position: M1-D162). Human Caveolin-2 shares 90% and 89% amino acid (aa) sequences identity with mouse and rat Caveolin-2, respectively.
