Anti-B MyB/MYBL2 Antibody Picoband®, PE Conjugate

MYBL2 (V-MYB avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog-like 2), also called MYB-RELATED GENE BMYB, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYBL2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the MYB family of transcription factor genes, is a nuclear protein involved in cell cycle progression. Barletta et al. (1991) assigned the MYBL2 gene to chromosome Xq13. However, Noben-Trauth et al. (1996) demonstrated that this assignment was an error. Using mouse Mybl2 cDNA clones as probes, they assigned Mybl2 in an interspecific backcross panel to distal mouse chromosome 2. Using human cDNA probes in combination with fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis, they localized MYBL2 to chromosome 20q13.1, a region that is commonly deleted in myeloid disorders and shows high homology of synteny to mouse chromosome 2. It has been shown to activate the cell division cycle 2, cyclin D1, and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 genes. Transcript variants may exist for this gene, but their full-length natures have not been determined.

Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 15; ADAM 15; Metalloprotease RGD disintegrin protein; Metalloproteinase-like, disintegrin-like, and cysteine-rich protein 15; MDC-15; Metargidin; ADAM15; MDC15

Expressed in colon and small intestine. Expressed in airway smooth muscle and glomerular mesangial cells (at protein level). Ubiquitously expressed. Overexpressed in atherosclerotic lesions. Constitutively expressed in cultured endothelium and smooth muscle. Expressed in chondrocytes. Expressed in airway smooth muscle and glomerular mesangial cells.

Active metalloproteinase with gelatinolytic and collagenolytic activity. Plays a role in the wound healing process. Mediates both heterotypic intraepithelial cell/T-cell interactions and homotypic T-cell aggregation. Inhibits beta-1 integrin-mediated cell adhesion and migration of airway smooth muscle cells. Suppresses cell motility on or towards fibronectin possibly by driving alpha-v/beta-1 integrin (ITAGV-ITGB1) cell surface expression via ERK1/2 inactivation. Cleaves E-cadherin in response to growth factor deprivation. Plays a role in glomerular cell migration. Plays a role in pathological neovascularization. May play a role in cartilage remodeling. May be proteolytically processed, during sperm epididymal maturation and the acrosome reaction. May play a role in sperm-egg binding through its disintegrin domain.
