Description
MAGEA2 Antibody (PACO18184)
The MAGEA2 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO18184) is a vital tool for researchers studying MAGEA2, a member of the MAGE (melanoma antigen) family of proteins that are often overexpressed in various cancers. This antibody, produced through immunization of rabbits, exhibits high specificity and reactivity with human samples, making it suitable for use in Western blot analysis.MAGEA2 is known for its role in promoting tumor growth and metastasis, making it a promising target for cancer research. By targeting MAGEA2 with this antibody, researchers can investigate its expression levels and functions in different cell types, providing valuable insights into its involvement in tumorigenesis.
Furthermore, understanding the functions of MAGEA2 is essential for the development of targeted therapies that can specifically inhibit its actions, potentially leading to novel approaches for treating cancer patients. By utilizing the MAGEA2 Polyclonal Antibody in their investigations, researchers can advance our understanding of MAGEA2's role in cancer progression and aid in the development of more effective treatments.

| Background: | This gene is a member of the MAGEA gene family. The members of this family encode proteins with 50 to 80% sequence identity to each other. The promoters and first exons of the MAGEA genes show considerable variability, suggesting that the existence of this gene family enables the same function to be expressed under different transcriptional controls. The MAGEA genes are clustered at chromosomal location Xq28. They have been implicated in some hereditary disorders, such as dyskeratosis congenita. This gene has two identical copies at different loci. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene. |
| Synonyms: | melanoma antigen family A, 2 |
| UniProt Protein Function: | MAGE-A2: Reduces p53/TP53 transactivation function through recruitment of HDAC3 to p53/TP53 transcription sites. Also represses p73/TP73 activity. Proposed to enhance ubiquitin ligase activity of RING-type zinc finger-containing E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. In vitro enhances ubiquitin ligase activity of TRIM28 and stimulates p53/TP53 ubiquitination by TRIM28 potentially in presence of Ubl-conjugating enzyme UBE2H. Proposed to act through recruitment and/or stabilization of the Ubl-conjugating enzyme (E2) at the E3:substrate complex. May play a role in embryonal development and tumor transformation or aspects of tumor progression. In vitro promotes cell viability in melanoma cell lines. Antigen recognized on a melanoma by autologous cytolytic T- lymphocytes. |
