| Buffer | 0.01M TBS (pH7.4) with 1% BSA, 0.02% Proclin300 and 50% Glycerol. |
| SUBCELLULAR LOCATION | Cell membrane. |
| SIMILARITY | Belongs to the recoverin family. Contains 4 EF-hand domains. |
| SUBUNIT | Component of heteromultimeric potassium channels. The KCND2-KCNIP2 channel complex contains four KCND2 and four KCNIP2 subunits. Interacts with KCND2. Isoform 1 and isoform 3 interact with KCND3 isoform 1. Probably part of a complex consisting of KCNIP1, KCNIP2 isoform 3 and KCND2. At least isoform 2 and isoform 3 can self-associate to form homodimers and homotetramers. Isoform 3 interacts with KCNIP1 in a calcium-dependent manner. |
| Post-translational modifications | Palmitoylated. Palmitoylation enhances association with the plasma membrane (By similarity). |
| Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
| Background Descriptions | The downstream regulatory element, DRE, acts as a location-dependent gene silencer. DREAM (for DRE-antagonist modulator) is a Ca2+-regulated transcriptional repressor that specifically binds to the DRE. DREAM regulates transcription of prodynorphin and c-Fos genes and shows 99% nucleotide homology to the Kv channel-interacting proteins (KChIPs). KChIP family members include KChIP1, which is expressed in brain, KChIP2, which is expressed in heart, brain, and lung, KChIP3 (also designated calsenilin), which is expressed in brain and testis and KChIP4. |
| Gene ID | 30819 |

| Other Names | Kv channel-interacting protein 2, KChIP2, A-type potassium channel modulatory protein 2, Cardiac voltage-gated potassium channel modulatory subunit, Potassium channel-interacting protein 2, KCNIP2, KCHIP2 |
| Target/Specificity | Expressed in brain. Colocalizes with KCND2 in excitatory neurons including cortical and hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells. Isoform 3 is expressed in heart and in umbilical vein endothelial cells. Not expressed in fetal heart. |
| Dilution | WB=1:500-2000,IHC-P=1:100-500,IHC-F=1:100-500,IF=1:50-200,ELISA=1:5000-10000 |
| Storage | Store at -20 ℃ for one year. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. When reconstituted in sterile pH 7.4 0.01M PBS or diluent of antibody the antibody is stable for at least two weeks at 2-4 ℃. |
| Name | KCNIP2 (HGNC:15522) |
|---|---|
| Function | Regulatory subunit of Kv4/D (Shal)-type voltage-gated rapidly inactivating A-type potassium channels (PubMed:10676964, PubMed:11287421, PubMed:11684073, PubMed:12297301, PubMed:14623880, PubMed:34997220). Modulates channel density, inactivation kinetics and rate of recovery from inactivation in a calcium-dependent and isoform- specific manner (PubMed:10676964, PubMed:11287421, PubMed:11684073, PubMed:12297301, PubMed:14623880, PubMed:34997220). Involved in KCND2 and KCND3 trafficking to the cell surface (PubMed:12829703). May be required for the expression of I(To) currents in the heart (By similarity). |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
