Description

AG-2 protein is critical for MUC2 post-transcriptional synthesis and secretion, implicating its role in intestinal mucus production. As a proto-oncogene, AG-2 affects cell migration, differentiation, and growth. AG-2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived AG-2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-10*His labeled tag.

Background

AG-2 protein is essential for the post-transcriptional synthesis and secretion of MUC2, suggesting a potential involvement in mucus production by intestinal cells. Beyond its role in mucin regulation, AG-2 emerges as a proto-oncogene, exerting influence on cell migration, differentiation, and growth. Notably, AG-2 promotes cell adhesion, underscoring its multifaceted contributions to cellular processes. Structurally, AG-2 exists as both a monomer and a homodimer. Additionally, it interacts with LYPD3 and DAG1 (alphaDAG1), forming complexes that may further modulate its functions. The interaction with MUC2, characterized by disulfide linkages, highlights the intricate molecular relationships AG-2 establishes within the cellular milieu.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 300 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
