This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments with the corresponding antibody, PA5-144910. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
Septin 2 is a filament-forming cytoskeletal GTPase. Septin 2 is required for normal organization of the actin cytoskeleton and plays a role in the biogenesis of polarized columnar-shaped epithelium by maintaining polyglutamylated microtubules, thus facilitating efficient vesicle transport, and by impeding MAP4 binding to tubulin. It is required for the progression through mitosis, and it forms a scaffold at the midplane of the mitotic splindle required to maintain CENPE localization at kinetochores and consequently chromosome congression. During anaphase, Septin 2 may be required for chromosome segregation and spindle elongation. Septin 2 also plays a role in ciliogenesis and collective cell movements.
