Beschreibung

General description

The gene AIM2 (Absent in melanoma 2) is mapped to human chromosome 1q22. It belongs to the IFI20X /IFI16 family. AIM2 transcripts are detected in spleen, small intestine, testis and peripheral blood leukocytes.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human AIM2

Application

Anti-AIM2 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.0μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) is induced by IFN-γ. The probable roles of AIM2 are regulation of cell proliferation, inflammation and benign prostate hyperplasia. It also suppresses proliferation and tumorigenicity of human breast cancer cells. AIM2 is a suppressor of melanoma tumorigenicity. AIM2 is up-regulated in humans with hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis. AIM2 expression was positively correlated with caspase-1 and IL (Interleukin)-1β expression. AIM2 is also a component of inflammasome and can sense cytoplasmic DNA, causing activation of ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD) pyroptosome and caspase-1.

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.
