General description
AHNAK nucleoprotein 2 is a large polypeptide with 600kDa molecular weight. Its giant propeller-like structure is composed of interconnected antiparallel β-strands with PDZ domain within its N-terminal, nonrepeating domain. It is localized at the interphase region of nuclei as a differentiation-related protein.

Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Depending on the presence of arachidonic acid, AHNAK2 binds to the phospholipase C-γ (PLC-γ). It activates PLC by binding to it, which finally generates diacylglycerol and inositol trisphosphate. These two by products of phosphoinositide hydrolysis are produced by ligand-stimulated receptors or G protein activation of PLCs. It also functions as a tumour-related phosphoprotein in a wide range of physiological activities.
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:
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.

Ahnak, originally identified as a giant, tumour-related phosphoprotein, has emerged as an important signalling molecule in a wide range of physiological activities. In this article, current knowledge will be reviewed that places ahnak into the context of cardiac L-type Ca2+

We have recently shown that phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) is activated by tau, a neuronal cell-specific microtubule-associated protein, in the presence of arachidonic acid. We now report that non-neuronal tissues also contain a protein that can activate PLC-gamma in the presence

AHNAK nucleoprotein 2 (AHNAK2) belongs to the AHNAK protein family. The studies of AHNAK2 are limited. A recent study reported that AHNAK2 might be a biomarker for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); however, tissue-based experiments have not been conducted. The aim

Data regarding expression levels of AHNAK2 in bladder cancer (BCa) have been very scarce. We retrospectively reviewed clinical data including clinicopathological features in 120 patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC) for BCa. The expression levels of AHNAK2 in the specimens
