NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the Shank family of synaptic proteins that may function as molecular scaffolds in the postsynaptic density (PSD). Shank proteins contain multiple domains for protein-protein interaction, including ankyrin repeats, an SH3 domain, a PSD-95/Dlg/ZO-1 domain, a sterile alpha motif domain, and a proline-rich region. This particular family member contains a PDZ domain, a consensus sequence for cortactin SH3 domain-binding peptides and a sterile alpha motif. The alternative splicing demonstrated in Shank genes has been suggested as a mechanism for regulating the molecular structure of Shank and the spectrum of Shank-interacting proteins in the PSDs of adult and developing brain. Two alternative splice variants, encoding distinct isoforms, are reported. Additional splice variants exist but their full-length nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
SHANK2 iso4: Seems to be an adapter protein in the postsynaptic density (PSD) of excitatory synapses that interconnects receptors of the postsynaptic membrane including NMDA-type and metabotropic glutamate receptors, and the actin-based cytoskeleton. May play a role in the structural and functional organization of the dendritic spine and synaptic junction. Defects in SHANK2 are a cause of susceptibility to autism type 17 (AUTS17). Autism is a complex multifactorial, pervasive developmental disorder characterized by impairments in reciprocal social interaction and communication, restricted and stereotyped patterns of interests and activities, and the presence of developmental abnormalities by 3 years of age. Most individuals with autism also manifest moderate mental retardation. Belongs to the SHANK family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SHANK2 shank2 (Catalog #AAA6347310) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SHANK2, ID (SHANK2, CORTBP1, KIAA1022, PROSAP1, SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains protein 2, Cortactin-binding protein 1, Proline-rich synapse-associated protein 1) (FITC) reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SHANK2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), FLISA. WB: 1:1000 Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SHANK2 shank2 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 "SHANK2, 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
