General description

MICU2 (mitochondrial calcium uptake 2) belongs to the uniporter complex. It is vigorously expressed in visceral organs. It is usually seen in the mitochondrial intermembrane space. It is located on chromosome 13q11-q12.

Immunogen

EF-hand domain family, member A1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-MICU2 has been used in western blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

MICU2 (mitochondrial calcium uptake 2) plays an important role in the modulation of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter.

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.

Linkage

Corresponding Antigen APREST81358

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.

The mitochondrial uniporter is a selective Ca(2+) channel regulated by MICU1, an EF hand-containing protein in the organelle's intermembrane space. MICU1 physically associates with and is co-expressed with a paralog, MICU2. To clarify the function of MICU1 and its relationship

Caloric restriction (CR) prevents obesity and increases resilience against pathological stimuli in laboratory rodents. At the mitochondrial level, protection promoted by CR in the brain and liver is related to higher Ca2+ uptake rates and capacities, avoiding Ca2+-induced mitochondrial permeability
