Rabbit Rb2 p130 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-RBL2 antibody
Anti-Rb2 p130 antibody
Background: RBL2(Retinoblastoma-like protein 2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RBL2 gene. It is also known as Retionblastoma-related gene(RB2), P130. Yeung et al.(1993) mapped the RBL2 gene to human chromosome 16q12.2 and rat chromosome 19, using fluorescence in situ hybridization and somatic hybrid cell analysis, respectively. Based on known syntenic relationships among human, rat and mouse, the data suggested that the mouse homolog resides on chromosome 8. Deletions of chromosome 16q have been found in several human neoplasms, including breast, ovarian, hepatic, and prostate cancers, which supports the involvement of RB2 in human cancer as a tumor suppressor gene. Kong et al.(2006)found that RBL2 and RINT1 were essential for telomere length control in human fibroblasts, with loss of either protein leading to longer telomeres. Williams et al.(2006)found that mouse fibroblasts lacking Rb were less susceptible to an oncogenic HRAS allele than wildtype cells. In contrast, p107(RBL1;) -/- and p130 -/- fibroblasts were more susceptible to HRAS-mediated transformation than wildtype cells.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
Rb-like 2: Key regulator of entry into cell division. Directly involved in heterochromatin formation by maintaining overall chromatin structure and, in particular, that of constitutive heterochromatin by stabilizing histone methylation. Recruits and targets histone methyltransferases SUV420H1 and SUV420H2, leading to epigenetic transcriptional repression. Controls histone H4 'Lys-20' trimethylation. Probably acts as a transcription repressor by recruiting chromatin-modifying enzymes to promoters. Potent inhibitor of E2F-mediated trans-activation, associates preferentially with E2F5. Binds to cyclins A and E. Binds to and may be involved in the transforming capacity of the adenovirus E1A protein. May act as a tumor suppressor. Belongs to the retinoblastoma protein (RB) family.

Product Notes
The RBL2 rbl2 (Catalog #AAA176136) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Rb2 p130 antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Rb2 p130 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the RBL2 rbl2 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 "Rb2 p130, 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
