Description | This antiserum is directed against human NOTCH 2. The immunogen epitope is only exposed after gamma secretase cleavage and is not accessible in the uncleaved form. Based on sequences, we expect this antibody to react as well with rat and mouse NOTCH 2. Only one amino acid difference (conservative) occurs in mouse and rat. Anti-Notch 2 Antibody recognizes Notch2 that is synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum as an inactive form which is proteolytically cleaved by a furin-like convertase (S1 cleavage) in the trans-golgi network before it reaches the plasma membrane to yield an active, ligand-accessible form. Cleavage results in a C-terminal fragment N(TM) and a N-terminal fragment N(EC). Following ligand binding, it is cleaved (S2 cleavage) by TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) to yield a membrane-associated intermediate fragment called Notch extracellular truncation (NEXT). This fragment is then cleaved by presenilin-dependent gamma-secretase (S3 cleavage) to release the intracellular domain (NICD) from the membrane. Anti-NOTCH2 Antibody is useful for researchers interested in Notch1, Jagged1, Jagged2, and Delta1, as well as neuroscience, transcription and cancer research. |
Immunogen | This whole rabbit serum was prepared by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues of human Notch 2 located near the N-terminal sequence of the cleaved N intracellular domain (NICD). |
