Gene Information

human ... CCM2(83605)

General description

Cerebral cavernous malformation 2 (CCM2) is an adaptor protein containing two domains and the gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 7p. The phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain in CCM2 is essential for binding to other proteins.

Immunogen

Malcavernin recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-CCM2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cerebral cavernous malformation 2 (CCM2) is a scaffold protein taking part in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation during hyperosmotic stress. It is also involved in different signaling pathways concerned with vascular integrity. CCM2 may play a role in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis during the development of the brain. Mutations in the gene encoding this protein are associated with familial cerebral cavernous malformations.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) are hamartomatous vascular malformations characterized by abnormally enlarged capillary cavities without intervening brain parenchyma. They cause seizures and focal neurological deficits due to cerebral hemorrhages. CCM loci have already been assigned to chromosomes 7q (CCM1), 7p

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs; OMIM 116860) are vascular anomalies mostly located in the central nervous system (CNS) and occasionally within the skin and retina. Main clinical manifestations are seizure, hemorrhage, recurrent headaches, focal neurological deficits and epileptic attacks. The CCMs

Cerebral cavernous malformation 2 (CCM2) is a novel two-domain adaptor protein which participates in multiple cellular signalling pathways. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding CCM2 are the cause of common human vascular lesions called cerebral cavernous malformations. Here, the purification
