Anti-ARL2 Antibody Picoband®

ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARL2 gene. This gene encodes a small GTP-binding protein of the RAS superfamily which functions as an ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) . The encoded protein is one of a functionally distinct group of ARF-like genes.

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human ARL2, which shares 90.9% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat ARL2.
