Lysosomal integral membrane protein type 2 (LIMP2) is an N-glycosylated type III transmembrane protein. It is composed of a lumenal domain, two transmembrane domains, and a cytoplasmic domain. LIMP2 belongs to the CD36 family of scavenger receptor proteins and is found abundantly in the lysosome. The LIMP2 gene is located on the human chromosome at 4q21.1.
免疫原
LIMP2 antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide from near the center of human LIMP2.
アプリケーション
Anti-LIMP2 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunofluorescence (1:100) and western blotting.[1]
生物化学的/生理学的作用
Lysosomal integral membrane protein type 2 (LIMP2) binds to β-glucocerebrosidase. Mutations in the LIMP 2 gene are associated with action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome, a fatal autosomal recessive disorder. Higher levels of LIMP2 lead to enlargement of early or late endosomes/lysosomes. Overexpression of LIMP2 is associated with impairment of endocytotic membrane trafficking.

Action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome (AMRF) is caused by mutations in the lysosomal integral membrane protein type 2 (LIMP-2/SCARB2). LIMP-2 was identified as a sorting receptor for beta-glucocerebrosidase (beta-GC), which is defective in Gaucher disease. To date, six AMRF-causing mutations have
