NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a receptor for both insulin-like growth factor 2 and mannose 6-phosphate. The binding sites for each ligand are located on different segments of the protein. This receptor has various functions, including in the intracellular trafficking of lysosomal enzymes, the activation of transforming growth factor beta, and the degradation of insulin-like growth factor 2. Mutation or loss of heterozygosity of this gene has been association with risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. The orthologous mouse gene is imprinted and shows exclusive expression from the maternal allele; however, imprinting of the human gene may be polymorphic, as only a minority of individuals showed biased expression from the maternal allele (PMID:8267611).

Uniprot Description
IGF2R: a multifunctional type I transmembrane protein receptor that binds insulin-like growth factor 2 at the cell surface and mannose-6-phosphate-tagged proteins in the trans-Golgi network. Also known as the cation-independent mannose-6 phosphate (M6P) receptor. Clears IGF2 from the cell surface to attenuate signaling, and transports M6P-tagged lysosomal enzymes from the Golgi complex and the cell surface to lysosomes. M6P-tagged lysosomal enzymes bind specifically to mannose-6- phosphate receptors in the Golgi apparatus and the resulting receptor-ligand complex is transported to an acidic prelyosomal compartment where the low pH mediates the dissociation of the complex. Acts as a positive regulator of T-cell coactivation, by binding DPP4. Belongs to the MRL1/IGF2R family.

Product Notes
The Hamster IGF2R igf2r (Catalog #AAA9361853) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9361853 ELISA Kit recognizes Hamster IGF2R. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cation-Independent Mannose-6-Phosphate Receptor (IGF2R), ELISA Kit" 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
