Anti-Nectin 2/NECTIN2 Antibody Picoband® (Biotine Conjugate)

Nectin-2 is a 60 or 65 kDa type I TM glycoprotein that is found on a variety of cell types. It is mapped to 19q13.32. This gene encodes a single-pass type I membrane glycoprotein with two Ig-like C2-type domains and an Ig-like V-type domain. This protein is one of the plasma membrane components of adherens junctions. It also serves as an entry for certain mutant strains of herpes simplex virus and pseudorabies virus, and it is involved in cell to cell spreading of these viruses. Variations in this gene have been associated with differences in the severity of multiple sclerosis. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.

Nectin-2; Herpes virus entry mediator B; Herpesvirus entry mediator B; HveB; Nectin cell adhesion molecule 2; Poliovirus receptor-related protein 2; CD112; NECTIN2; HVEB; PRR2; PVRL2

Modulator of T-cell signaling. Can be either a costimulator of T-cell function, or a coinhibitor, depending on the receptor it binds to. Upon binding to CD226, stimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production, including that of IL2, IL5, IL10, IL13, and IFNG. Upon interaction with PVRIG, inhibits T-cell proliferation. These interactions are competitive. Probable cell adhesion protein. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-1) mutant Rid1, herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-2) and pseudorabies virus (PRV).
