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.
PPT2 Antibody (N-term) Blocking Peptide
Synthetic peptide
- SPECIFICATION
- CITATIONS
- PROTOCOLS
- BACKGROUND
| Primary Accession | Q9UMR5 |
|---|---|
| Other Accession | PPT2_HUMAN |
| Clone Names | 3090807 |
| Gene ID | 9374 |
|---|---|
| Other Names | Lysosomal thioesterase PPT2, PPT-2, 312-, S-thioesterase G14, PPT2 |
| Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP2539a was selected from the N-term region of human PPT2 . A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
| Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
| Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | PPT2 |
|---|---|
| Function | Removes thioester-linked fatty acyl groups from various substrates including S-palmitoyl-CoA. Has the highest S-thioesterase activity for the acyl groups palmitic and myristic acid followed by other short- and long-chain acyl substrates. However, because of structural constraints, is unable to remove palmitate from peptides or proteins. |
| Cellular Location | Lysosome. |
| Tissue Location | Broadly expressed, with highest levels in skeletal muscle. |

Background
PPT2 removes thioester-linked fatty acyl groups from modified cysteine residues in proteins and prefers the acyl groups palmitic and myristic acid over other long-chain acyl substrates. It is a glycosylated lysosomal protein and member of the palmitoyl-protein thioesterase family.
