Biochem/physiol Actions

Munc-18-1 interacting protein 2 (Mint2) participates in vesicle exocytosis. Mint 2 interacts with amyloid-β precursor protein (APP) and presenilins. It favors phosphorylation of β-amyloid precursor protein family members APP and Amyloid-like protein 2 (APLP2) in response to cellular stress, by facilitating c-Jun N-terminal kinase mediated phosphorylation.

General description

Munc-18-1 interacting protein 2 (Mint2), also called X11L, shares 50% homology with Mint1 and both are expressed exclusively in brain and bind Munc-18-1 with high affinity. It has N-terminal Munc-18-1-interacting domain (MID), a middle phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain, and two C-terminal PDZ domain. It belongs to mammalian LIN-10 protein family. Mint 2 is present in neurons.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1-18, located at the N-terminus of rat mint2, conjugated to KLH. This sequence is highly conserved (single amino acid substitution) in mouse mint2 and shows limited homology (66% identity) to human mint2. It does not share homology with the mint1 and mint3 isoforms.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA and 15 mM sodium azide.
