Rabbit SHMT2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-SHMT2 antibody
SHMT2 Antibody
Phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
IHC: 1:50-1:200
Western Blot (WB)

Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
(MBS9607005 at 1/100 staining Human lung tissue by IHC-P. The sample was formaldehyde fixed and a heat mediated antigen retrieval step in citrate buffer was performed. The sample was then blocked and incubated with the antibody for 1.5 hours at 22 degree C. An HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary.)
Function: Catalyzes the cleavage of serine to glycine accompanied with the production of 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, an essential intermediate for purine biosynthesis (PubMed:24075985, PubMed:29364879, PubMed:25619277). Serine provides the major source of folate one-carbon in cells by catalyzing the transfer of one carbon from serine to tetrahydrofolate (PubMed:25619277). Contributes to the de novo mitochondrial thymidylate biosynthesis pathway via its role in glycine and tetrahydrofolate metabolism: thymidylate biosynthesis is required to prevent uracil accumulation in mtDNA (PubMed:21876188). Also required for mitochondrial translation by producing 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate; 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate providing methyl donors to produce the taurinomethyluridine base at the wobble position of some mitochondrial tRNAs (PubMed:29452640, PubMed:29364879). Associates with mitochondrial DNA (PubMed:18063578). In addition to its role in mitochondia, also plays a role in the deubiquitination of target proteins as component of the BRISC complex: required for IFNAR1 deubiquitination by the BRISC complex (PubMed:24075985).
Subunit Structure: Homotetramer; in the presence of bound pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PubMed:29180469, PubMed:25619277). Homodimer; in the absence of bound pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PubMed:29180469, PubMed:25619277). Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate binding mediates an important conformation change that is required for tetramerization (PubMed:25619277). Interacts with ABRAXAS2; the interaction is direct. Identified in a complex with ABRAXAS2 and the other subunits of the BRISC complex, at least composed of the ABRAXAS2, BRCC3/BRCC36, BABAM2 and BABAM1/NBA1. Identified in a complex with ABRAXAS2 and IFNAR1 (PubMed:24075985). Interacts with KIRREL3 (PubMed:25902260).
Post-translational Modifications: Succinylation at Lys-280 inhibits the hydroxymethyltransferase activity. Desuccinylation by SIRT5 restores the activity, leading to promote cell proliferation.
Similarity: Belongs to the SHMT family.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Predicted: 56 kDa
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the mitochondrial form of a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible reaction of serine and tetrahydrofolate to glycine and 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate. The encoded product is primarily responsible for glycine synthesis. The activity of the encoded protein has been suggested to be the primary source of intracellular glycine. The gene which encodes the cytosolic form of this enzyme is located on chromosome 17. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Product Notes
The SHMT2 shmt2 (Catalog #AAA9607005) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SHMT2 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SHMT2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SHMT2 shmt2 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 "SHMT2, 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
