Gene Information

human ... IGF2BP1(10642)

General description

The gene IGF2BP1 (insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1) is mapped to human chromosome 17q21. It belongs to the IGF (insulin-like growth factor)-II mRNA-binding proteins family. The protein contains RNA recognition motifs and K-homology domains. IGF2BP1 localizes mainly in the cytoplasm and subcytoplasmic domains. IGF2BP1 is also referred to as IMP1 (insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1) or CRD-BP (coding region determinant-binding protein).

Immunogen

Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-IGF2BP1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

IGF2BP1 (insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1) is important for the mRNA localization, turnover and translational control. It binds to the target mRNAs and thereby regulates its cytoplasmic fate. For instance, it binds to the 3′-untranslated region of CD44 mRNA and stabilizes it. Similarly, it interacts with the coding region of βTrCP1 (F-box and WD repeats protein) mRNA and stabilizes it. IGF2BP1 is up-regulated in non-small cell lung cancers and is associated with tumor progression. It is also up-regulated in neuroblastoma.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
