NDRG2 polyclonal antibody

The N-myc downstream regulated gene (NDRG) family is comprised of four members, namely NDRG1, NDRG2, NDRG3 and NDRG4, all of which share 57-65% homology. NDRG2 (NDRG family member 2), also known as SYLD, is a 371 amino acid protein that localizes to both the cytoplasm and the perinuclear region in neurons. Expressed at high levels in heart, brain, dendritic cells, salivary gland and skeletal muscle and at lower levels in liver and kidney, NDRG2 is thought to be involved in dendritic and neuronal cell differentiation and outgrowth. Additionally, NDRG2 expression is downregulated in a variety of carcinomas, including liver cancer, pancreatic cancer and meningioma, suggesting a possible role for NDRG2 in tumor suppression. NDRG2 is found in brain lesions of Alzheimer Disease (AD) -affected patients and is thought to be associated with the progression of AD. Five isoforms of NDRG2 exist due to alternative splicing events.

The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE) .
