Gene Information
human ... TIAM2(26230)
General description
The gene TIAM2 (T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis 2) gene encodes a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that is a homolog of TIAM1, a Rac-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor involved in neuron development and human malignancies. The gene is mapped to human chromosome 6q25. It is expressed in the cerebrum, cerebellum and testis.
Immunogen
T-lymphoma invasion and metastasis-inducing protein 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-TIAM2 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
T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis 2 is a protein involved in the GDP-GTP exchange activity. It is commonly referred to as STEF (Sif and Tiam1-like exchange factor) and functions in the Rac activation during microtubule regrowth. It is essential for focal adhesion disassembly mediated by microtubules during cell migration. Increased expression of this gene has been linked to proliferation and invasion in liver cancer cells.
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:
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.

Focal adhesion (FA) disassembly required for optimal cell migration is mediated by microtubules (MTs); targeting of FAs by MTs coincides with their disassembly. Regrowth of MTs, induced by removal of the MT destabilizer nocodazole, activates the Rho-like GTPase Rac, concomitant
