Gene Information

human ... ZDHHC2(51201)

General description

The gene ZDHHC2 (zinc finger DHHC-type containing 2) is mapped to human chromosome 8p21-22. It belongs to the palmitoyl acyltransferase (PAT) family and contains an Asp-His-His-Cys (DHHC) motif. PATs are mainly responsible for protein palmitoylation. ZDHHC2 is present in mobile vesicles of dendrites.
Zinc finger DHHC-type containing 2 (ZDHHC2) is a tumor suppressor gene.

Immunogen

zinc finger, DHHC-type containing 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ZDHHC2 (zinc finger DHHC-type containing 2) interacts with PSD95 (postsynaptic density protein 95), SNAP25 (synaptosomal-associated protein 25), SNAP23, CKAP4 (cytoskeleton-associated protein 4), CD9 and CD151. It plays a crucial role in the development, metastasis as well as recurrence of many cancers. ZDHHC2 is suggested as a tumor/metastasis suppressor gene.
Zinc finger DHHC-type containing 2 (ZDHHC2) mediates palmitoylation of cytoskeleton-associated protein 4 (CKAP4), which is essential for CKAP4 subcellular division and antiproliferative factor (APF) stimulated cellular proliferation and gene expression. The protein plays an important role in metastasis and recurrence in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

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.
