Anti-MPP2

Palmitoylated membrane protein 2 is a member of a family of membrane-associated proteins termed MAGUKs (membrane-associated guanylate kinase homologs). MAGUKs interact with the cytoskeleton and regulate cell proliferation, signaling pathways, and intracellular junctions. Palmitoylated membrane protein 2 contains a conserved sequence, called the SH3 (src homology 3) motif, found in several other proteins that associate with the cytoskeleton and are suspected to play important roles in signal transduction. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], Protein function: Postsynaptic MAGUK scaffold protein that links CADM1 cell adhesion molecules to core components of the postsynaptic density. In CA1 pyramidal neurons, required for synaptic KCNN2- containing channel function and long-term potentiation expression. Seems to negatively regulate SRC function in epithelial cells (PubMed:19665017). [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000,IHC-p 1:50-300. Cellular localization: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Membrane . Cell projection, dendrite . Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic density . Prominently expressed in the postsynaptic densities of dendritic spines, is also detected in dendritic shafts. .
