Gene Information
human ... AGO2(27161)
General description
Ago2 (argonaute-2), also known as eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2C (EIF2C2), is an essential component for siRNA-directed RNA interference (RNAi) response. Ago2 is an endonuclease required for the unwinding of siRNA duplex and assembly of siRNA into RNA-induced silencing complexes (RISC). Ago2 interacts with DICER1 through its Piwi domain. This Piwi domain is thought to provide RNA cleavage activity via a mechanism similar to RNase H. Ago2 activity is necessary for embryonic development as well as RNA-mediated gene silencing (RNAi).
Immunogen
Linear peptide corresponding to human Ago2.
Application
Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory detected Ago2 in HEK239 cell lysate (Rudel, S., et al. (2008) RNA. 14(6):1244-1253.).
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A represeentative lot from an independent laboratory detected Ago2 in HEK293, HeLa, and RPE-1 cells (Weinmann, L., et al. (2009). Cell. 136(3):496-507.).

The biological impact of microRNAs (miRNAs) is determined by their targets, and robustly identifying direct miRNA targets remains challenging. Existing methods suffer from high false-positive rates and are unable to effectively differentiate direct miRNA targets from downstream regulatory changes. Here
