General description

WW2 (atrophin-1-interacting protein 2) is a member of a large family of NEDD4-like E3 ligases that transfer ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes to targeted protein substrates. In general, ubiquitination affects protein turnover and activity. As a result, ubiquitin-related enzymes play essential roles in many cellular processes. The WW2 E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase contains a C2 domain at the N-terminus and a HECT (E6AP-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase) domain at the C-terminus which interact to inhibit its catalytic activity. Previous studies have suggested that WW2 may play a role in cellular transport, transcription, and T-cell activation. It has also been shown that WW2 regulates the PTEN tumor suppressor and plays an essential role in apoptosis and survival of cancer cells. WW2-deficient mice show abnormal development of craniofacial structures.

This Anti-WWP2 Antibody is validated for use in Western Blotting, IHC for the detection of WWP2.
Western Blot Analysis: A representative lot of this antibody detected WWP2 in CGR8 ES whole cell lysate and in transiently transfected HEK293 cells (Xu, H. M. et al. (2004). J Biol Chem. 279(22):23495-23503.).

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in mESC lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 1 µg/mL of this antibody detected WWP2 in 10 µg of mESC lysate (For optimal performance, a range of 1 to 2 µg/mL of this antibody is recommended in Western Blot).

Target description
