Related Product Information for anti-METAP2 antibody
Methionine aminopeptidases (MetAP), also designated peptidase M proteins, are members of the M24 family of proteins. Both MetAP-1 and MetAP-2 release N-terminal amino acids, usually methionine, from nascent peptides and arylamines. Eukaryotes contain both MetAP-1 and MetAP-2, whereas prokaryotes possess only the MetAP-1 enzyme. MetAP-1 and MetAP-2 control cell proliferation in mammalian cells. MetAP-2 is highly conserved between human and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Neurofibromin (NF1) regulates MetAp-2 and increased expression of MetAP-2 correlates with several forms of cancer. Inhibitors of MetAP-2 are potential targets in cancer therapeutics, particularly in NF1-associated tumor proliferation. Chemotherapeutic drugs such as ovalicin and fumagillin bind to the active site of and inhibit MetAp-2.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the methionyl aminopeptidase family. The encoded protein functions both by protecting the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 from inhibitory phosphorylation and by removing the amino-terminal methionine residue from nascent proteins. Increased expression of this gene is associated with various forms of cancer, and the anti-cancer drugs fumagillin and ovalicin inhibit the protein by irreversibly binding to its active site. Inhibitors of this gene have also been shown to be effective for the treatment of obesity. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 2. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

Uniprot Description

Cotranslationally removes the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. The N-terminal methionine is often cleaved when the second residue in the primary sequence is small and uncharged (Met-Ala-, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr, or Val). The catalytic activity of human METAP2 toward Met-Val peptides is consistently two orders of magnitude higher than that of METAP1, suggesting that it is responsible for processing proteins containing N-terminal Met-Val and Met-Thr sequences in vivo.

Product Notes

The METAP2 metap2 (Catalog #AAA3013032) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The METAP2 Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's METAP2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS). WB: 1:500-1:2,000 ICC: 1:50-1:200 IF: 1:50-1:100 IHC: 1:50-1:200 FC/FACS: 1:50-1:100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the METAP2 metap2 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 "METAP2, 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.
