Anti-Syntaxin-2 (Epimorphin)

Syntaxin 2, also known as epimorphin, is a 35kD type II integral membrane that belongs to the t-SNARE family, a group of proteins involved in protein transport (2). Syntaxin 2 was first identified as a factor that promotes branching morphogenesis in mammary epithelial cells (3). Studies using pancreatic exocrine acinar cells, in which the exocytic pathways are well defined, show primary localization of syntaxin 2 to the apical plasma membrane (4). Homologs of syntaxin 2 have been identified in various eukaryotes ranging from yeast to human (5, 6). Neuronal syntaxin is a component of a 20S complex implicated in vesicle docking and fusion, which involves its interaction with syntaxin through a ATP-dependent reaction modulated by synaptotagmin, SNAP-25, alpha-SNAP, and NSF (7). , , Applications: , Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Immunoprecipitation.
