NPC2 Polyclonal Antibody, Cy3 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
NPC2 is a secreted protein mapping against gene 14q24.3 (1,2) . NPC2 regulates the lipid composition of sperm membranes during maturation in the epididymis (1,2) . Mutations in the NPC2 gene may cause Nieman-Pick type C2 disease and frontal lobe atrophy (1,2,3) . Nieman-Pick type C2 is a fatal hereditary disease characterized by defective lysosome release of cholesterol (3) . The disease is caused by HE1 deficiency, a lysosmal protein proven to be undetectable in fibroblasts from NPC2 patients (3) . This differentiates NPC2 from NPC1, as NPC1 has HE1 protein present (3) .
