Monoclonal Anti-LAP2α (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 3A3 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a peptide. Lamina-associated polypeptide 2, isoform α (LAP2α), also called thymopoietin isoform α, is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 12q23.1. LAP2α is a LEM (LAP2-Emerin-MAN1) domain protein. that resides in the nucleus.
Specificity
Monoclonal Anti-LAP2α recognizes human and bovine LAP2α.
Immunogen
peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of human LAP2α, conjugated to KLH.
Application
Monoclonal Anti-LAP2α antibody produced in mouse may be used in immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Lamina-associated polypeptide 2 α (LAP2 α) may play a role in the assembly of the nuclear lamina, and thus helps in maintaining the structural organization of the nuclear envelope. It may also facilitate the binding of lamin A to the inner nuclear membrane. Mutation in this gene leads to the development of dilated cardiomyopathy.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
Storage and Stability
For continuous use, store at 2-8°C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze at -20oC in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing,or storage in “frost-free” freezers,is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discardedif not used within 12 hours.

Chromatin organization within the nuclear volume is essential to regulate many aspects of its function and to safeguard its integrity. A key player in this spatial scattering of chromosomes is the nuclear envelope (NE). The NE tethers large chromatin domains
