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.

| Purity | This protein A purified antibody is directed against human AGAP2 protein. The product was purified from monospecific antiserum by protein A chromatography. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with AGAP2 protein from mouse and rat based on 93% and 95% protein:protein homologies, respectively, with the immunizing sequence. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known. |
| Storage Condition | Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
| Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
| Name | AGAP2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | CENTG1, KIAA0167 |
| Function | GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF1 and ARF5, which also shows strong GTPase activity. Isoform 1 participates in the prevention of neuronal apoptosis by enhancing PI3 kinase activity. It aids the coupling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) to cytoplasmic PI3 kinase by interacting with Homer scaffolding proteins, and also seems to mediate anti-apoptotic effects of NGF by activating nuclear PI3 kinase. Isoform 2 does not stimulate PI3 kinase but may protect cells from apoptosis by stimulating Akt. It also regulates the adapter protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent trafficking of proteins in the endosomal system. It seems to be oncogenic. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, prevents apoptosis and promotes cancer cell invasion. |
| Cellular Location | [Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. |
| Tissue Location | Isoform 1 is brain-specific. Isoform 2 is ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in brain and heart |

Background
This antibody is designed, produced, and validated as part of a collaboration between Rockland and the National Cancer Institute (NCI). AGAP2 (also known as Arf-GAP with GTPase, ANK repeat and PH domain-containing protein 2) is a GTPase activating protein that inactivates Arf. The expression of AGAP2 is amplified in human glioblastoma cells. GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF1 and ARF5, which also shows strong GTPase activity. It mediates anti-apoptotic effects of nerve growth factor by activating nuclear phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Isoform 1 participates in the prevention of neuronal apoptosis by enhancing PI3 kinase activity. It aids the coupling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) to cytoplasmic PI3 kinase by interacting with Homer scaffolding proteins, and seems to mediate anti-apoptotic effects of NGF by activating nuclear PI3 kinase. Isoform 2 does not stimulate PI3 kinase but may protect cells from apoptosis by stimulating Akt. It also regulates the adapter protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent trafficking of proteins in the endosomal system. It seems to be oncogenic. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, prevents apoptosis and promotes cancer cell invasion. Anti-AGAP2 Antibody is useful for researchers interested in Developmental Biology, apoptosis, Cancer, Immunology, and Nuclear Signaling research.
