Anti-SMURF 2 Antibody
Background: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase SMURF2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the SMURF2 gene. The SMURF2 gene is mapped to chromosome 17q22-q23 based on sequence similarity between the SMURF2 sequence and a genomic contig. SMURF2 is a HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in degradation of SMADs, TGF-beta receptor (TGFBR), and other substrates. It also functions in regulation of neuronal and planar cell polarity, induction of senescence, and tumor suppression
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
SMURF2: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Interacts with SMAD1 and SMAD7 in order to trigger their ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation. In addition, interaction with SMAD7 activates autocatalytic degradation, which is prevented by interaction with SCYE1. Forms a stable complex with the TGF-beta receptor-mediated phosphorylated SMAD2 and SMAD3. In this way, SMAD2 may recruit substrates, such as SNON, for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Enhances the inhibitory activity of SMAD7 and reduces the transcriptional activity of SMAD2. Coexpression of SMURF2 with SMAD1 results in considerable decrease in steady-state level of SMAD1 protein and a smaller decrease of SMAD2 level.

Product Notes
The SMURF 2 smurf2 (Catalog #AAA178265) is an Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-SMURF 2 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SMURF 2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western Blot Concentration: 0.1-0.5ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SMURF 2 smurf2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SMURF 2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
