Goat PIAS2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-PIAS2 antibody
Goat anti-PIAS2 Antibody
Immunohistochemistry: In paraffin embedded Human Testis shows nuclear and extra-nuclear staining in spermatids. Recommended concentration, 3-5ug/ml.
Western Blot: Preliminary experiments gave an approx 90kDa band in lysates of cell line A431after 0.5ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the band we observe given the calculated size of 68.2kDa according to NP_004662.2. The 90kDa band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide.

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the protein inhibitor of activated STAT (PIAS) family. PIAS proteins function as SUMO E3 ligases and play important roles in many cellular processes by mediating the sumoylation of target proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. Isoforms of the encoded protein enhance the sumoylation of specific target proteins including the p53 tumor suppressor protein, c-Jun, and the androgen receptor. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 4. The symbol MIZ1 has also been associated with ZBTB17 which is a different gene located on chromosome 1.

Uniprot Description
PIAS2: Functions as an E3-type small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) ligase, stabilizing the interaction between UBE2I and the substrate, and as a SUMO-tethering factor. Plays a crucial role as a transcriptional coregulator in various cellular pathways, including the STAT pathway, the p53 pathway and the steroid hormone signaling pathway. The effects of this transcriptional coregulation, transactivation or silencing may vary depending upon the biological context and the PIAS2 isoform studied. However, it seems to be mostly involved in gene silencing. Binds to sumoylated ELK1 and enhances its transcriptional activity by preventing recruitment of HDAC2 by ELK1, thus reversing SUMO-mediated repression of ELK1 transactivation activity. Isoform PIAS2-beta, but not isoform PIAS2-alpha, promotes MDM2 sumoylation. Isoform PIAS2-alpha promotes PARK7 sumoylation. Isoform PIAS2-beta promotes NCOA2 sumoylation more efficiently than isoform PIAS2- alpha. Belongs to the PIAS family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

The Goat anti-PIAS2 Antibody reacts with Tested: Human; Expected from sequence similarity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Dog and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PIAS2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Peptide ELISA (EIA), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Peptide ELISA: Antibody detection limit dilution 1: 8000. Immunohistochemistry: In paraffin embedded Human Testis shows nuclear and extra-nuclear staining in spermatids. Recommended concentration, 3-5ug/ml. Western Blot: Preliminary experiments gave an approx 90kDa band in lysates of cell line A431after 0.5ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the band we observe given the calculated size of 68.2kDa according to NP_004662.2. The 90kDa band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PIAS2 pias2 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. The amino acid sequence is listed below: KEAMKVSSQP CTKIE. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PIAS2, 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
