NEB2 rabbit pAb

This gene encodes a scaffold protein that functions as a regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 1a. Expression of this gene is particularly high in dendritic spines, suggesting that the encoded protein may play a role in receiving signals from the central nervous system. The encoded protein has putative tumor suppressor function and decreased expression has been observed in tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

Cell membrane. Cell projection, lamellipodium. Cell projection, filopodium. Cell projection, ruffle membrane. Enriched at synapse and cadherin-based cell-cell adhesion sites. In neurons, both cytosolic and membrane-associated, and highly enriched in the postsynaptic density apposed to exitatory synapses. Colocalizes with PPP1R2 at actin-rich adherens junctions in epithelial cells and in dendritic spines (By similarity) . Accumulates in the lamellipodium, filopodium and ruffle membrane in response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) treatment. .
