Gene Information

human ... ARFGAP2(84364)

General description

The gene ADP-ribosylation factor GTPase-activating protein-2 (ARFGAP2) has been mapped to human chromosome 11p11.2. ARFGAPs form a family of proteins sharing a conserved catalytic domain which include a zinc finger motif, and they differ in the non-catalytic domains. Human genome contains sixteen genes coding for ARFGAPs. Fluorescent protein tagging showed ARFGAP2 localization on the Golgi complex and punctuate structures in the cytoplasm identified as endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartments/vesicular-tubular compartments.

Application

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 Actions

ADP-ribosylation factor GTPase-activating protein-2 (ARFGAP2) is shown to associate with COP-I-coated vesicles produced in-vitro. Additionally, it is shown to be involved in the COP-I-dependent Golgi-to-endoplasmic reticulum trafficking of a model cargo, cholera toxin. ARFGAP1, 2 and 3 together are essential for COP-I-mediated trafficking in mammalian cells. Triple knockout of ARFGAP1/2/3 in HeLa cells result in cell death. Single knockdown of ARFGAP2 in HeLa cells using siRNA approach results in Golgi unstacking and cisternal shortening. Brefeldin A treatment results in re-distribution of the ARFGAP2 from the Golgi complex to the cytosol.

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.

ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are critical regulators of vesicular trafficking pathways and act at multiple intracellular sites. ADP-ribosylation factor-GTPase-activating proteins (ARFGAPs) are proposed to contribute to site-specific regulation. In yeast, two distinct proteins, Glo3p and Gcs1p, together provide overlapping, essential ARFGAP
