General description

Nesprin-2 (SYNE-2) is also known as Nuclear envelope spectrin repeat protein 2 or Nucleus and actin connecting element protein, and it functions to network organelles and the actin cytoskeleton in order maintain subcellular spatial organization. Nesprin-2 connects nuclei to the cytoskeleton by interacting with the nuclear envelope and cytoplasmic F-actin, and is required for centrosome migration to the apical cell surface during early ciliogenesis. Nesprin-2 is widely expressed, with high levels seen in kidney, adult and fetal liver, stomach and placenta. Defects in SYNE2 are responsible for Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 5 (EDMD5).

Immunogen

His-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to human Nesprin-2.

Application

Detect Nesprin-2 using this mouse monoclonal antibody, Anti-Nesprin-2 Antibody, clone K20-478 validated for use in western blotting, ICC & IP.
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:50 dilution of this antibody detected Nesprin-2 in HepG2 and COS-7 cells.

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory immunoprecipitated Nesprin-2 in HA-MKS3 transfected HEK293 whole cell extracts. Immunoprecipitated sample was then subjected to Western Blotting using the same representative lot of antibody (Dawe, H. R., et al. (2009). J Cell Sci. 122(Pt 15): 2716-2626.).

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory detected Nesperin-2 in IMCDE whole cell extracts. High levels of a 25 kDa ABD-containing isoform was observed only at post-confluence (+72 hours); however, a second major ABD-containing isoform was observed at 55 kDa before and after confluence (Dawe, H. R., et al. (2009). J Cell Sci. 122(Pt 15): 2716-2626.).

The nuclear morphology of eukaryotic cells is determined by the interplay between the lamina forming the nuclear skeleton, the chromatin inside the nucleus, and the coupling with the cytoskeleton. Nuclear alterations are often associated with pathological conditions as in Hutchinson-Gilford
