Specificity / Sensitivity
Notch2 (D76A6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total Notch2 protein. Species cross-reactivity for IHC-P is human only.
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ala2378 of human Notch2 protein.
Background
Notch proteins (Notch1-4) are a family of transmembrane receptors that play important roles in development and the determination of cell fate (1). Mature Notch receptors are processed and assembled as heterodimeric proteins, with each dimer composed of a large extracellular ligand-binding domain, a single-pass transmembrane domain, and a smaller cytoplasmic subunit (Notch intracellular domain, NICD) (2). Binding of Notch receptors to ligands of the Delta-Serrate-Lag2 (DSL) family triggers heterodimer dissociation, exposing the receptors to proteolytic cleavages; these result in release of the NICD, which translocates to the nucleus and activates transcription of downstream target genes (3,4). Notch2 is a member of the Notch family and mutation in Notch2 is associated with Alagille syndrome (5).
