PTCH2 blocking peptide
PTCH2 Peptide
Target Description: PTCH2 is a member of the patched protein family. The patched protein is the receptor for sonic hedgehog, a secreted molecule implicated in the formation of embryonic structures and in tumorigenesis. The gene encoding PTCH2 is shown to be mutated in a medulloblastoma and in a basal cell carcinoma, suggesting that it plays a role in the development of some tumors. This gene encodes a member of the patched gene family. The patched protein is the receptor for sonic hedgehog, a secreted molecule implicated in the formation of embryonic structures and in tumorigenesis. This gene is shown to be mutated in a medulloblastoma and in a basal cell carcinoma, suggesting that it plays a role in the development of some tumors. Alternative transcript variants have been described, but their biological function has not been determined.

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a transmembrane receptor of the patched gene family. The encoded protein may function as a tumor suppressor in the hedgehog signaling pathway. Alterations in this gene have been associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, basal cell carcinoma, medulloblastoma, and susceptibility to congenital macrostomia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Product Notes
The PTCH2 ptch2 (Catalog #AAA3232755) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's PTCH2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PTCH2 ptch2 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 "PTCH2, Blocking Peptide" 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
