Western Blot (WB)
(Western blot analysis of AP2M1 expression in rat kidney extract (lane 1), NIH3T3 whole cell lysates (lane 2) and MCF-7 whole cell lysates (lane 3). AP2M1 at 50KD was detected using rabbit anti- AP2M1 Antigen Affinity purified polyclonal antibody at 0.5ug/mL. The blot was developed using chemiluminescence (ECL) method. )
Background: AP-2 complex subunit mu is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AP2M1 gene. This gene encodes a subunit of the heterotetrameric coat assembly protein complex 2 (AP2), which belongs to the adaptor complexes medium subunits family. The encoded protein is required for the activity of a vacuolar ATPase, which is responsible for proton pumping occurring in the acidification of endosomes and lysosomes. The encoded protein may also play an important role in regulating the intracellular trafficking and function of CTLA-4 protein. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description
AP2M1: a protein of the adaptor complexes medium subunit family. A subunit of the heterotetrameric coat assembly protein complex 2 (AP2) which links clathrin to receptors in coated vesicles. Interacts with the cytoplasmic tails of membrane proteins and polyphosphoinositide-containing lipids. Is not required for clathrin-coated vesicle formation at the plasma membrane, but that it is one of several endocytic adaptors required for the uptake of certain cargo proteins. Is required for the activity of a vacuolar ATPase, which is responsible for proton pumping occurring in the acidification of endosomes and lysosomes. AP-2 is a heterotetramer composed of two large chains (alpha and beta), a medium chain (AP50) and a small chain (AP17).

Product Notes
The AP2M1 ap2m1 (Catalog #AAA178700) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-AP2M1 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's AP2M1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western Blot: 0.1-0.5ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the AP2M1 ap2m1 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 "AP2M1, 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
