Description

General description

The high mobility group (HMG) proteins are subdivided into 3 families based on their functional sequence motif characteristic: the HMGB (formerly HMG-1/-2) family, the HMGN (formerly HMG-14/-17) and the HMGA (formerly HMG-I/Y/C) family. The HMGB protein family, including HMGB1, HMGB2, and HMGB3, are highly conserved (more than 80% amino acid identity), and indistinguishable in their biochemical properties. The high-mobility group box 2 (HMGB2) is a ~25 kDa protein of 209 amino acids that consists of two homologous HMG-boxes rich in basic amino acids and an acidic tail at the carboxy-terminus. HMGB2 is restricted mainly to lymphoid organs and testes, although it is widely expressed in embryogenesis.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid 165-181 of human HMGB2, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is conserved in mouse and differs by one amino acid in rat.

Application

Anti-HMGB2 (HMG2) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:

• immunoblotting
• immunoprecipitation
• immunofluorescence

Yale Center for High Throughput Cell Biology IF-tested antibodies. Each antibody is tested by immunofluorescence against HUVEC cells using the Yale HTCB IF protocol.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The high-mobility group box 1 and 2 (HMGB 1 & 2) proteins participate in the regulation of chromatin structure as well as being involved in transcription regulation, DNA repair, recombination, differentiation and extracellular signalling.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
