Rabbit anti-Human glial cells missing homolog 2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-GCM2 antibody
Rabbit anti-human glial cells missing homolog 2 (Drosophila) polyclonal Antibody
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a homolog of the Drosophila glial cells missing gene, which is thought to act as a binary switch between neuronal and glial cell determination. The protein encoded by this gene contains a conserved N-terminal GCM motif that has DNA-binding activity. The protein is a transcription factor that acts as a master regulator of parathyroid development. It has been suggested that this transcription factor might mediate the effect of calcium on parathyroid hormone expression and secretion in parathyroid cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with hypoparathyroidism. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
GCM2: Probable transcriptional regulator. Defects in GCM2 are a cause of familial isolated hypoparathyroidism (FIH); also known as autosomal dominant hypoparathyroidism or autosomal dominant hypocalcemia. FIH is characterized by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia due to inadequate secretion of parathyroid hormone. Symptoms are seizures, tetany and cramps. An autosomal recessive form of FIH also exists.

Product Notes
The GCM2 gcm2 (Catalog #AAA711203) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit anti-human glial cells missing homolog 2 (Drosophila) polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's glial cells missing homolog 2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GCM2 gcm2 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 "glial cells missing homolog 2, 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
