Anti-SATB2 antibody produced in rabbit (C15-1445-144)

General description

SATB2 (SATB homeobox 2) is an AT rich DNA-binding protein. It is a homologue of SATB1 protein. This gene is localized to human chromosome 2q33.1, and is highly conserved across different species.

Immunogen

SATB homeobox 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-SATB2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2) binds to nuclear matrix-attachment regions (MAR), displays functional versatility in central nervous development, especially corpus callosum and pons formation, cancer development and prognosis, as well as in immune regulation. The gene is a nuclear matrix-associated transcription factor and epigenetic regulator that is involved in osteoblastic differentiation. It is expressed in the glandular epithelial cells of the lower gastrointestinal tract. It plays a critical role in osteoblast lineage commitment and might be involved in the development and progression of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) as a tumor suppressor. SATB2 is a marker of osteoblastic differentiation in benign and malignant mesenchymal tumours and colorectal adenocarcinomas.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Linkage

Corresponding Antigen APREST76122.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.
