Gene Information

human ... HMGB2(3148)

General description

High-mobility group protein B2, also known as high-mobility group protein 2 (HMG-2), is a protein encoded by the HMGB2 gene in humans. The protein belongs to a family of chromatin proteins made up of two basic DNA binding domains, HMG box A and B, and a C-terminal acidic tail. The gene is mapped to human chromosome 4q34.

Immunogen

HMGB2 (AAH00903.2, 1 a.a. ~ 195 a.a) full-length recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

High-mobility group protein B2 (HMGB2) functions as a significant prognostic factor and may play a crucial role in cell invasion. The gene acts as a novel prognostic marker and an attractive therapeutic target for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The protein helps in altering DNA elasticity while facilitating transcription, replication and DNA repair. It plays a significant role in tumor development and during prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may also be associated with the anti-apoptotic pathway.

Physical form
