Carbonic anhydrase 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-CA2 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

CA2 (carbonic anhydrase II) gene encodes isozyme II of carbonic anhydrase, a zinc-containing enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of CO2 to HCO3-. This metalloenzyme is involved in several processes such as, gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, ureagenesis, tumorigenicity and the growth and virulence of various pathogens. It also plays a role in respiration and transport of CO2 and bicarbonate between metabolizing tissues and lungs, pH and CO2 homeostasis, bone resorption and calcification. CA II is observed to be down-regulated in gastric cancer and may serve as a potential prognostic factor.

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.
