Anti-CLASP2 / CLIP-associating protein 2

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. CLASP2 (CLIP-associating protein 2) is a brain specific protein belongs to CLASP family. CLASP1 and CLASP2 regulate microtubule plus-end dynamics in brine cortex. CLASP2 is required for the orientation of stabilized microtubules toward the leading edge, It may act at the cell cortex to enhance the frequency of rescue of depolymerizing microtubules by attaching their plus-ends to cortical platforms. Phosphorylation of CLASP2 by GSK3B may negatively regulate binding to microtubule lattices in lamella. Protein function: Microtubule plus-end tracking protein that promotes the stabilization of dynamic microtubules (PubMed:26003921). Involved in the nucleation of noncentrosomal microtubules originating from the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Required for the polarization of the cytoplasmic microtubule arrays in migrating cells towards the leading edge of the cell. May act at the cell cortex to enhance the frequency of rescue of depolymerizing microtubules by attaching their plus-ends to cortical platforms composed of ERC1 and PHLDB2 (PubMed:16824950). This cortical microtubule stabilizing activity is regulated at least in part by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling. Also performs a similar stabilizing function at the kinetochore which is essential for the bipolar alignment of chromosomes on the mitotic spindle (PubMed:16866869, PubMed:16914514). Acts as a mediator of ERBB2- dependent stabilization of microtubules at the cell cortex. [The UniProt Consortium]
