MAGED2 Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

MAGED2 is a member of the MAGED gene family. In contrast to the MAGEA and MAGEB genes, which have their entire coding sequences located in the last exon, the MAGED genes have their coding sequences located throughout multiple exons. Also, the MAGEA and MAGEB genes are silent in normal tissues with the exception of testis and placenta, whereas the MAGED genes are expressed ubiquitously. The MAGED genes are clustered on chromosome Xp11. This gene is located in Xp11.2, a hot spot for X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) .
