Anti-Arfgef2

Not available outside of the UK & Ireland.

Application

All Prestige Antibodies^®Powered by Atlas Antibodies is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ADP ribosylation factor guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 (ARFGEF2) activates ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) by exchanging guanosine diphosphate (GDP) with guanosine triphosphate (GTP). It aids in the release of type I tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR1) from human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Mutation in the ARFGEF2 gene has been linked to microcephaly and periventricular heterotopia.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

General description

ADP ribosylation factor guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 (ARFGEF2) possesses a Sec7 domain which is crucial for its activity. This protein is expressed in the brain and the gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 20.
