RANBP2 Antibody (N-term)
Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Pab)

Catalog # Source: Lot # Size:
AP1120a Rabbit SH030310C 0.1 mg
Concentration: Accession: Clone Name: Isotype:
0.25 mg/ml NP_006258, P49792 RB2677 Rabbit Ig
Applications: Reactivity: MW (kDa):
IHC, E H 358214 Da
Target/Specificity:
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the N-terminal region of human RANBP2.
Other Names:
Ran-binding protein 2; RanBP2; Nuclear pore complex protein Nup358; Nucleoporin Nup358; 358 kDa nucleoporin; P270
Application Data:

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma.

Background:
RAN is a small GTP-binding protein of the RAS superfamily that is associated with the nuclear membrane and is thought to control a variety of cellular functions through its interactions with other proteins. This gene encodes a very large RAN-binding protein that immunolocalizes to the nuclear pore complex. The protein is a giant scaffold and mosaic cyclophilin-related nucleoporin implicated in the Ran-GTPase cycle. The encoded protein directly interacts with the E2 enzyme UBC9 and strongly enhances SUMO1 transfer from UBC9 to the SUMO1 target SP100. These findings place sumoylation at the cytoplasmic filaments of the nuclear pore complex and suggest that, for some substrates, modification and nuclear import are linked events. This gene is partially duplicated in a gene cluster that lies in a hot spot for recombination on chromosome 2q.
