ANTI-LAP2 ANTIBODY

General description

The inner membrane of the nuclear envelope is connected to the nuclear lamina. The main components of the nuclear lamina are Type V intermediate filaments called lamins and lamin binding proteins including lamin B receptor, emerin, MANI, LAP1 (3 isoforms), and LAP2 (several isoforms). The lamins are divided into two groups: the constitutively expressed lamin B and the developmentaly regulated lamin A.
The best characterized isoforms of lamin binding protein LAP2 are LAP2α and LAP2β. LAP2β is a type II membrane protein in the inner nuclear membrane that binds lamin B and is important to cell viability and controlling nuclear lamina growth. LAP2α has been characterized as a nucleoplasmic protein that interacts with A-type lamins to control gene expression, transcription, and chromatin organization.

Specificity

Predicted to cross-react with canine (dog) and rat based on sequence homology.

This antibody recognizes LAP2.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated synthetic linear peptide corresponding to LAP2.

Application
