Related Product Information for anti-DCTN2 antibody
Description: Dynamitin is a 50 kDa protein containing a calmodulin binding domain, a putative ATPase domain and MacMARCKS-binding domain. This protein is a part of the dynactin complex believed to link the dynactin complex to membrane compartments. Its functions are tightly associated with dynein motor protein, thus extend to vesicle trafficking and membrane integrity. Dynamitin was named so because its overexpression causes dynactin complex which contains 10 subunits, to disassemble. Its N terminal 58 amino acid is for MacMARCKS binding and residues 59-83 is responsible for calmodulin binding. This antibody is against the full length p50 dynamitin.
Function: 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.
Subunit Structure: Subunit of dynactin, a multiprotein complex associated with dynein. Interacts with BICD2 and CEP135 (By similarity). Interacts with DYNAP (PubMed:20978158). Interacts with ECPAS (PubMed:20682791). Interacts with MAPRE1 (PubMed:10226031).
Similarity: Belongs to the dynactin subunit 2 family.

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]

Product Notes

The DCTN2 dctn2 (Catalog #AAA9607576) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The DCTN2 Antibody 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, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemisty (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200 IF/ICC: 1:100-1:500. 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.
