Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 2 (AIMP2) is localized to the cytosol. It is part of the multi-tRNA synthetase complex. The AIMP2 gene is located on human chromosome 7.
Immunogen
Antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide near the center of human AIMP2.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 2 (AIMP2) is a scaffold protein which functions as a tumor suppressor. It stimulates the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of FUSE-binding protein (FUBP1), which is a transcription activator. AIMP2 activates tumor suppressor p53 and stimulates apoptosis. The assembly of macromolecular tRNA synthetase complex depends on AIMP2.

AIMP2/p38 is a multifunctional tumor suppressor that normally resides in the cytosol as a scaffold protein of the multi-tRNA synthetase complex (MSC). One of the tumor-suppressive functions of AIMP2 is to facilitate ubiquitin-mediated degradation of FUSE-binding protein (FBP, FUBP1), a

AIMP2/p38 is a scaffolding protein critical for the assembly of the macromolecular tRNA synthetase complex. Moreover, AIMP2 harbors anti-proliferative activity and promotes cell death as a proapototic factor. A splicing variant of AIMP2 lacking exon 2 (AIMP2-DX2) is specifically generated
