Related Product Information for anti-TSC2 antibody

Tuberous sclerosis (TSC) is a human genetic disorder characterized by mental retardation and the widespread development of benign and infrequently malignant tumors in a variety of tissues. Two different genetic loci have been linked to TSC; one of these loci, the tuberous sclerosis-2 gene (TSC2), encodes a protein 1784 amino acids in length, called tuberin. Tuberin exhibits a region of limited homology to the catalytic domain of Rap1 GAP. Subcellular fractionation studies have shown tuberin to be predominantly localized in membrane fractions. Tuberin is capable of stimulating the intrinsic GTPase activity of Rap 1A, but not Rap 2, H-Ras, Rac or Rho. TSC2 maps to human chromosome 16 and is associated with several intragenic mutations in affected patients. The mouse homolog of the tuberin gene maps to chromosome 17.

NCBI Description

Mutations in this gene lead to tuberous sclerosis complex. Its gene product is believed to be a tumor suppressor and is able to stimulate specific GTPases. The protein associates with hamartin in a cytosolic complex, possibly acting as a chaperone for hamartin. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Uniprot Description

TSC2: a product of the tumor suppressor gene TSC2. Tuberin and Hamartin (TSC1) form a tumor suppressor heterodimer that inhibits the mTOR nutrient signaling input. TSC1/TSC2 targets the small G protein Rheb, a novel mediator of the nutrient signaling input to mTOR. Functions as a Rheb GTPase activating protein (GAP). Four alternatively spliced isoforms have been described.
