METAP2 Antibody (N-term) [APR08422G]

METAP2 Antibody (N-term) [APR08422G] | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Product Category: Polyclonal Antibodies

Host: Rabbit

Species Reactivity: H

Specificity: This METAP2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 33-61 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human METAP2.

Cellular Localisation: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03175, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21537465}. Note=About 30% of expressed METAP2 associates with polysomes

Molecular Weight: 52892

Clone: Polyclonal

Gene Name: METAP2 {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03175}

Gene ID: 10988

Function: Cotranslationally removes the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. The N-terminal methionine is often cleaved when the second residue in the primary sequence is small and uncharged (Met- Ala-, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr, or Val) . The catalytic activity of human METAP2 toward Met-Val peptides is consistently two orders of magnitude higher than that of METAP1, suggesting that it is responsible for processing proteins containing N-terminal Met-Val and Met-Thr sequences in vivo.

Summary: N/A

Form: Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.

Storage: Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Application: WB

Dilution: WB--1:1000
