General description

Sulf-2 is an endoplasmic reticulum enzyme that is involved in sulfur metabolism which is important in bone, cartilage, and skeletal development. Sulf-2 is also important in neurological situations including myelination and glial cell differentiation and GDNF activity. Sulf-2 activity is also found in the kidney and important in glomerular basement membrane development and glomerular function. Finally, Sulf-2 is involved in heparan sulfate metabolism. Sulf-2 removes sulfate moieties on heparan sulfate proteoglycans which in turn modulate the heparin binding growth factor signaling activity of the cell. Sulf-2 also impacts extracellular matrix interactions and it is important during development and growth, as well as Wnt signaling and VEGF production by endothelial cells during vascularization. In disease, Sulf-2 expression in cancer is upregulated and inhibition of Sulf-2 limits cancer progression and showed increased apoptosis within tumors, thus Sulf-2 activation is being examined as a potential anti-cancer therapy.

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to Human Sulf-2.

This Anti-Sulf-2 Antibody, clone 8G1 is validated for use in Western Blotting and Immunocytochemistry for the detection of Sulf-2.
Western Blot Analysis: 4 µg/mL of a representative lot of this antibody detected Sulf-2 in Sulf-2 transfected HEK293 cell lysates.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: 4 µg/mL of a representative lot of this antibody detected Sulf-2 in Sulf-2 transfected HEK293 cells, but not in HEK293 cells transfected with an empty vector or Sulf-1.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blotting in MCF-7 conditioned media.

Western Blotting Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL of this antibody detected Sulf-2 in 10 µg of MCF-7 conditioned media.

Target description

~125 & 75 kDa observed.
Sulf-2 is synthesized as a ~125 kDa pre-protein and is subsequently cleaved into ~75 kDa and ~50 kDa fragments, which are held together by disulfide bonds in the mature protein.

Physical form

Format: Purified
Protein G Purified
Purified mouse monoclonal IgG1κ in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide.
