GLI2 antibody (Internal Region)

Catalog No. ABIN129627

Product Details anti-GLI2 Antibody

Target: GLI2 (GLI Family Zinc Finger 2 (GLI2))

Binding Specificity: Internal Region

Reactivity: Human, Chimpanzee

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This GLI2 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Specificity: This affinity-purified antibody is directed against human Gli-2 protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with Gli-2 from human and chimpanzee based on the immunizing sequence.

Characteristics: Gli-2 (also known as Zinc Finger Protein Gli-2, GLI-Kruppel family member GLI-2 or Tax helper protein) belongs to the C2H2-type zinc finger protein subclass of the Gli family. Members of this subclass are characterized as transcription factors that bind DNA through zinc finger motifs. These motifs contain conserved H-C links. Gli family zinc finger proteins are mediators of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling and they are implicated as potent oncogenes in the embryonal carcinoma cell. The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the cytoplasm and activates patched Drosophila.

Sterility: Sterile filtered

Immunogen: This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 46-60 of human Gli-2 (isoform a).
Immunogen Type: Peptide

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: This antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, immunohistochemistry and western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. See figure legend for expectations by western blot. Multiple splice variants have been reported for this protein a, b, g and d (133.3, 131.6, 88.1 and 86.4 kDa respectively). Detection of Gli-2 by western blot may be enhanced if nuclear extracts are used instead of whole cell lysates as the expression/abundance of Gli-2 is likely to be low. Furthermore, Gli-2 expression is likely to be developmentally regulated and induced, making it difficult to detect in whole tissue homogenates.
