Anti-LMO2 / Rhombotin 2, clone LMO2/1971

1 mg/ml in 1X PBS, BSA free, sodium azide free. The LMO2 protein has a central and crucial role in hematopoietic development and is highly conserved. It has a particular function in normal and lymphatic endothelial cells involving the regulation of angiogenesis and lymph-angiogenesis. Immunohistochemical studies have also demonstrated expression of LMO2 in both normal germinal center B-cells and germinal center-derived B-cell lymphomas, including follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.The use of anti-LMO2 is valuable as a tool in the identification of lymphomas of B-cell origin. LMO2 is useful in differentiating follicular lymphoma (LMO2+) from nodal marginal zone lymphoma (LM02-). It also is positive in Hodgkin s and Burkitt s lymphomas. Protein function: Acts with TAL1/SCL to regulate red blood cell development. Also acts with LDB1 to maintain erythroid precursors in an immature state. [The UniProt Consortium]
