Gene Information

human ... TPM2(7169)

General description

TPM2 codes for beta-tropomyosin that belongs to the actin binding protein family. Mutations in TPM2 have been linked to congenital myopathies, Sheldon-Hall syndrome and cap disease.
Rabbit anti-TPM2 antibody recognizes canine, bovine, rabbit, zebrafish, chicken, human, mouse, and rat TPM2

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human TPM2

Application

Rabbit anti-TPM2 antibodies have been used for immunoblot analysis. It is also suitable for IHC applications at a concentration of 4-8 μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

TPM2 is beta-tropomyosin, an isoform of tropomyosin that is mainly expressed in slow, type 1 muscle fibers.The TPM2 gene encodes beta-tropomyosin, an isoform of tropomyosin that is mainly expressed in slow, type 1 muscle fibers (Tajsharghi et al., 2007 [PubMed 17846275]). See also TPM1 (MIM 191010), TPM3 (MIM 191030), and TPM4 (MIM 600317).[supplied by OMIM]. Publication Note: This RefSeq record includes a subset of the publications that are available for this gene. Please see the Entrez Gene record to access additional publications.

Mutations affecting skeletal muscle isoforms of the tropomyosin genes may cause nemaline myopathy, cap myopathy, core-rod myopathy, congenital fiber-type disproportion, distal arthrogryposes, and Escobar syndrome. We correlate the clinical picture of these diseases with novel (19) and previously reported (31)
