Description
Product Usage Information
Western Blotting: 1:1000
Storage
Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.
Protocol
Available protocols: Western Blotting
Specificity / Sensitivity
PDLIM2 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total PDLIM2 protein.
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Gly255 of human PDLIM2 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Background
PDLIM2, also known as Mystique, contains an amino-terminal PDZ domain and a carboxy-terminal LIM domain. PDLIM2 was orginally found to be associated with cytoskeletal proteins in epithelial cells to promote cell attachment and migration (1,2). Subsequent studies have shown that PDLIM2 can also inhibit NF-κB activity by acting as a nuclear ubiquitin E3 ligase for p65 (3). PDLIM2 is suppressed in cancer cell lines by DNA methylation (4,5). Expression of PDLIM2 can inhibit anchorage-independent growth and tumor formation.
