Gene Information

human ... GPSM2(29899)

General description

G-protein signaling modulator 2 (GPSM2) gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that function in the activation of G proteins. It contains 10 leu-gly-asn (LGN) repeats at the N-terminal and four Gαi/o–Loco (GoLoco) motifs at the C-terminal.

Immunogen

G-protein-signaling modulator 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-GPSM2 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

GPSM2 (G-protein signaling modulator 2) is involved in the transduction of signals from cell surface receptors into integrated cellular responses. The protein functions in the maintenance of cell polarity and spindle orientation by anchoring the coiled-coil protein NuMA and dynein to the cell cortex during metaphase. It is essential for the segregation of cell lineage into muscle and dermis. It plays a crucial role in the development of normal hearing and any defects in this gene are associated with hearing loss. Defects in this gene have been observed in patients with Chudley-McCullough Syndrome showing brain malformations and hearing loss. It plays the role of a guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor towards both Gα(o)- and Gα(i)-subunits.

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.

Proper orientation of the mitotic spindle defines the correct division plane and is essential for accurate cell division and development. In metazoans, an evolutionarily conserved complex comprising of NuMA/LGN/Gαi regulates proper orientation of the mitotic spindle by orchestrating cortical dynein

GPSM2 (G-protein signalling modulator 2; also known as LGN or mammalian Pins) is a protein that regulates mitotic spindle organization and cell division. GPSM2 contains seven tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR) and four Galpha(i/o)-Loco (GoLoco) motifs. GPSM2 has guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor

Autosomal-recessive inheritance, severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss, and partial agenesis of the corpus callosum are hallmarks of the clinically well-established Chudley-McCullough syndrome (CMS). Although not always reported in the literature, frontal polymicrogyria and gray matter heterotopia are uniformly present

Correct spindle positioning is fundamental for proper cell division during development and in stem cell lineages. Dynein and an evolutionarily conserved ternary complex (nuclear mitotic apparatus protein [NuMA]-LGN-Gα in human cells and LIN-5-GPR-1/2-Gα in Caenorhabditis elegans) are required for correct
