Rabbit Anti-NME2 (C-myc purine-binding transcription factor PUF, Histidine protein kinase NDKB)

NME2(NME/NM23 nucleoside diphosphate kinase 2) also called non-metastatic cells 2, protein (NM23B) expressed in, NM23-H2, NM23B or NDPKB, is identical to the beta subunit of human erythrocyte NDP kinase. Little to no expression was detected in other mouse tissues examined. Using Northern blot analysis, Masse et al. (2002) detected high expression of mouse Nme2, which they called nm23-M2, in heart, liver, and kidney, with intermediate expression in skeletal muscle. In situ hybridization of 15-day postcoitum mouse embryos showed ubiquitous Nme2 expression. The mouse and human NME2 genes contain 5 exons and span about 6.0 kb. The NME2 gene is mapped on 17q21.33. Srivastava et al. (2006) concluded that histidine phosphorylation regulates KCa3.1 channel activity and that NDPBK is critical to the channel activity and the activation of CD4 T cells.

Applications
Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) and Immunocytochemistry.
Recommended Dilution
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability
Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminal of human NME2, different from the related mouse and rat sequences by one amino acid.
Form

Purity
Purified by immunoaffinity chromatography.
Specificity
Recognizes human, mouse and rat NME2. No crossreactivity with other proteins.

Intended for research use only. Not for use in human, therapeutic, or diagnostic applications.
