Anti-ADGRA2

Polyclonal Antibody against Human ADGRA2, Gene description: adhesion G protein-coupled receptor A2, Alternative Gene Names: DKFZp434C211, DKFZp434J0911, FLJ14390, GPR124, KIAA1531, TEM5, Validated applications: ICC, Uniprot ID: Q96PE1, Storage: Store at +4°C for short term storage. Long time storage is recommended at -20°C. Protein function: Endothelial receptor which functions together with RECK to enable brain endothelial cells to selectively respond to Wnt7 signals (WNT7A or WNT7B) (PubMed:28289266, PubMed:30026314). Plays a key role in Wnt7-specific responses, such as endothelial cell sprouting and migration in the forebrain and neural tube, and establishment of the blood-brain barrier. Acts as a Wnt7-specific coactivator of canonical Wnt signaling: required to deliver RECK-bound Wnt7 to frizzled by assembling a higher-order RECK-ADGRA2-Fzd-LRP5-LRP6 complex (PubMed:30026314). ADGRA2-tethering function does not rely on its G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) structure but instead on its combined capacity to interact with RECK extracellularly and recruit the Dishevelled scaffolding protein intracellularly (PubMed:30026314). Binds to the glycosaminoglycans heparin, heparin sulfate, chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate (PubMed:16982628). [The UniProt Consortium] Mouse gene identity: 89% Rat gene identity: 89%
