| Specificity: |
The antibody detects 44 and 32 kDa* proteins corresponding to the molecular mass of Arp2 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human A431, HUVEC, HeLa, and Jurkat cells as well as rat PC12, mouse C2C12, and rabbit fibroblasts. |
| Immunogen: |
Arp2 (C-terminal region) synthetic peptide (coupled to KLH) corresponding to amino acid residues in the C-terminal region of human Arp2. This peptide sequence is highly conserved in rat, mouse, chicken, and frog Arp2 proteins. |
| Function | ATP-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex, a multiprotein complex that mediates actin polymerization upon stimulation by nucleation-promoting factor (NPF). The Arp2/3 complex mediates the formation of branched actin networks in the cytoplasm, providing the force for cell motility. Seems to contact the pointed end of the daughter actin filament. In podocytes, required for the formation of lamellipodia downstream of AVIL and PLCE1 regulation. In addition to its role in the cytoplasmic cytoskeleton, the Arp2/3 complex also promotes actin polymerization in the nucleus, thereby regulating gene transcription and repair of damaged DNA. The Arp2/3 complex promotes homologous recombination (HR) repair in response to DNA damage by promoting nuclear actin polymerization, leading to drive motility of double-strand breaks (DSBs). |
