Anti-CTBP2 Antibody Picoband® (monoclonal, 7F3E1) Fluoro647 Conjugated

The E1a region of group C adenoviruses encodes 2 nearly identical proteins that are largely responsible for the oncogenic properties of adenoviruses. The CTBP1 protein binds to the C-terminal half of these E1A proteins. It's predicted that CTBP2 is a 445-amino acid protein and it is 72% identical to CTBP1. The CTBP2 gene is mapped to chromosome 10q26.13. CTBP2 is a mammalian corepressor that targets diverse transcriptional regulators. It bounds the short medial portion of delta-EF1 containing the PLDLSL motif and it enhances transrepression activity of delta-EF1.

E.coli-derived human CTBP2 recombinant protein (Position: H321-Q445) . human CTBP2 shares 99.2% and 98.4% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat CTBP2, respectively.
