anti-Human GAS2 Antikörper für Immunofluorescence

Antigen Type: Recombinant Protein

Target/Specificity: GAS2 (NP_005247, 1 a.a. ~ 110 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Other Names: Growth arrest-specific protein 2, GAS-2, GAS2

Gene Description: growth arrest-specific 2

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a caspase-3 substrate that plays a role in regulating microfilament and cell shape changes during apoptosis. It can also modulate cell susceptibility to p53-dependent apoptosis by inhibiting calpain activity. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.

Background: The protein encoded by this gene is a caspase-3 substrate that plays a role in regulating microfilament and cell shape changes during apoptosis. It can also modulate cell susceptibility to p53-dependent apoptosis by inhibiting calpain activity. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.
