Anti-MARVELD2 Antibody Picoband®, APC Conjugate

MARVEL domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MARVELD2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane protein found at the tight junctions between epithelial cells. The encoded protein helps establish epithelial barriers such as those in the organ of Corti, where these barriers are required for normal hearing. Defects in this gene are a cause of deafness autosomal recessive type 49 (DFNB49). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

E.coli-derived human MARVELD2 recombinant protein (Position: R12-H496). Human MARVELD2 shares 87% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse MARVELD2.
