Rabbit anti Human PID/MTA2 (Metastasis associated protein MTA2)

Rabbit anti Human PID/MTA2 (Metastasis associated protein MTA2), Polyclonal, IgG

Background: The p53 tumor-suppressor gene integrates numerous signals that control cell life and death. Several novel molecules involved in p53 pathway, including Chk2 , p53R2 (2), p53AIP1 (3), Noxa (4), PIDD, and PID/MTA2, were recently discovered. The transcriptional activity of p53 is modulated by protein stability and acetylation. PID/MTA2, also termed MTA1-L1, was found to be a subunit of nucleosome remodeling and deacetylating (NRD/NuRD) complex. PID/MTA2 modulates the enzymatic activity of the histone deacetylase complex and its expression reduces the levels of acetylated p53. Deacetylation of p53 by PID/MTA2 represses p53-dependent transcriptional activation and modulates p53-mediated cell growth arrest and apoptosis. PID/MTA2 is ubiquitously expressed in human tissues.

Positive Control: Widely expressed, located in the nucleus. Positive Control; HeLa cell lysate.

Purification Method: Antigen Immunoaffiinity Purification.

Source: Rabbit polyclonal PID antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 652 to 668 of human PID/MTA2, which differ from the mouse sequence by one amino acid.
