NCBI Description

This gene encodes a 50-kD subunit of dynactin, a macromolecular complex consisting of 10-11 subunits ranging in size from 22 to 150 kD. Dynactin binds to both microtubules and cytoplasmic dynein. It is involved in a diverse array of cellular functions, including ER-to-Golgi transport, the centripetal movement of lysosomes and endosomes, spindle formation, chromosome movement, nuclear positioning, and axonogenesis. This subunit is present in 4-5 copies per dynactin molecule. It contains three short alpha-helical coiled-coil domains that may mediate association with self or other dynactin subunits. It may interact directly with the largest subunit (p150) of dynactin and may affix p150 in place. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]

Uniprot Description

dynactin 2: Modulates cytoplasmic dynein binding to an organelle, and plays a role in prometaphase chromosome alignment and spindle organization during mitosis. Involved in anchoring microtubules to centrosomes. May play a role in synapse formation during brain development. Belongs to the dynactin subunit 2 family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Cell cycle regulation; Cytoskeletal; Microtubule-binding; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Motor

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13.3

Cellular Component: kinetochore; dynein complex; centrosome; microtubule; dynactin complex; growth cone; membrane; cytoplasm; cytosol; vesicle

Molecular Function: protein binding; spectrin binding; motor activity

Biological Process: mitosis; cell proliferation; mitotic spindle organization and biogenesis; metabolic process; organelle organization and biogenesis; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class II; mitotic cell cycle; G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle; melanosome transport

Product Notes

The DCTN2 dctn2 (Catalog #AAA6413694) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The DCTN2 (Dynactin Subunit 2, DCTN50, DYNAMITIN, RBP50) (Biotin) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's DCTN2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunofluorescence (IF), Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). IF: 1:50-1:200 WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200 Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DCTN2 dctn2 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 "DCTN2, 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.
