Target/Specificity | This AFF2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 886-912 amino acids from the Central region of human AFF2. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | AFF2 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | AFF2 (HGNC:3776) |
---|---|
Synonyms | FMR2, OX19 |
Function | RNA-binding protein. Might be involved in alternative splicing regulation through an interaction with G-quartet RNA structure. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus speckle. Note=When splicing is inhibited, accumulates in enlarged speckles |
Tissue Location | Brain (most abundant in hippocampus and amygdala), placenta and lung |

Background
This gene encodes a putative transcriptional activator that is a member of the AF4FMR2 gene family. This gene is associated with the folate-sensitive fragile X E locus on chromosome X. A repeat polymorphism in the fragile X E locus results in silencing of this gene causing Fragile X E syndrome. Fragile X E syndrome is a form of nonsyndromic X-linked mental retardation. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
