Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

Excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2) is a membrane glutamate transporter. This gene localizes to human chromosome 11p13-12.This protein is localized to endfoot membrane of astrocytes, and accounts for more than 90% glutamate uptake in the central nervous system (CNS). It is a resident of astrocyte plasma membrane.

Immunogen

Excitatory amino acid transporter 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Anwendung

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

Excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2) is the major transport in adult human brain responsible for the clearance of extracellular glutamate. Suppression of the expression and function of this transporter is found in multiple neurological diseases such as, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer′s disease (AD), Parkinson′s disease (PD), schizophrenia and epilepsy. In the membrane of hepatocytes of bile duct-ligated rats and cholestatic human liver samples, this transporter is up-regulated. Under experimental cholestasis conditions, the expression and function of this transporter is altered. Thus, glutamate system plays a role in liver cholestasis. In patients with neuromyelitis optica, auto-antibodies against aquaporin-4 results in abnormal glutamate transport due to reduction in EAAT2 expression.

Leistungsmerkmale und Vorteile

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.
