Cryptochrome circadian regulator 2 (CRY2) is a core circadian gene and transcriptional repressor. CRY2 gene is located on the human chromosome 11p11.2.
Immunogen
CRY2 (NP_066940.1, 141 a.a. ~ 231 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Cryptochrome circadian regulator 2 (CRY2) is involved in DNA damage checkpoint control and cell cycle progression. It maintains the circadian rhythm through a circadian feedback loop. It is also important in immune system coordination and hematologic system development. CRY2 is a potential circadian biomarker for non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma (NHL). CRY2 is linked to rapid cycling in bipolar disorder. CRY2 functions as light-sensitive magnetosensor.
