Why is the actual band size different from the predicted Western blotting is a technique that separates proteins based on size - in general, the smaller the protein the faster it migrates through the gel. However, migration is also affected by other factors and so the actual band size observed may differ from that predicted. Common factors include... · post-translational modification - e.g. phosphorylation, glycosylation etc which increases the size of the protein · post-translation cleavage - e.g. many proteins are synthesized as pro-proteins, and then cleaved to give the active form, e.g. pro-caspases · splice variants - alternative splicing may create different sized proteins from the same gene · relative charge - the composition of amino acids (charged vs non-charged) multimers - e.g. dimerisation of a protein. This is usually prevented in reducing conditions, although strong interactions can result in the appearance of higher bands.)

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
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 AP-2 ap2m1 (Catalog #AAA715377) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit anti-human AP-2 complex subunit mu polyclonal Antibody, FITC reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's AP-2 complex subunit mu can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the AP-2 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 "AP-2 complex subunit mu, 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
