Mouse Anti-SSX2 (Synovial Sarcoma X Breakpoint 2, Cancer/testis Antigen 5.2, CT5.2, CT5.2a, Protein SSX2, SSX2A, SSX2B, Tumor Antigen HOM-MEL-40, MGC119055, MGC15364, MGC3884)
Synovial sarcoma, X breakpoint 2, also known as SSX2, is a human gene. The product of this gene belongs to the family of highly homologous synovial sarcoma X (SSX) breakpoint proteins. SSX1, SSX2 nd SSX4 genes have been involved in the t (X;18) translocation characteristically found in all synovial sarcomas. The SSX1 and SSX2 genes encode closely related proteins (81% identity) of 188aa that are rich in charged amino acids. The N-terminal portion of each SSX protein exhibits homology to the Kruppel-associated box (KRAB), a transcriptional repressor domain previously found nly in Kruppel-type zinc finger proteins.
