| Clonality: |
Polyclonal |
| Conjugation: |
Unconjugated |
| Isotype: |
IgG |
| Formulation: |
Lyophilised |
| Purification: |
IgG purified |
| Dilution Range: |
IHC, WB. A dilution of 1:100 to 1:2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not yet tested in other applications. |
| Storage Instruction: |
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at-20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles. |
| Gene Symbol: |
BBS2 |
| Gene ID: |
583 |
| Uniprot ID: |
BBS2_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: |
N-Term |
| Specificity: |
Specific for BBS2. |
| Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from the n-terminal region of human BBS2 conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in rat and mouse. |
| Function | The BBSome complex is thought to function as a coat complex required for sorting of specific membrane proteins to the primary cilia. The BBSome complex is required for ciliogenesis but is dispensable for centriolar satellite function. This ciliogenic function is mediated in part by the Rab8 GDP/GTP exchange factor, which localizes to the basal body and contacts the BBSome. Rab8(GTP) enters the primary cilium and promotes extension of the ciliary membrane. Firstly the BBSome associates with the ciliary membrane and binds to RAB3IP/Rabin8, the guanosyl exchange factor (GEF) for Rab8 and then the Rab8-GTP localizes to the cilium and promotes docking and fusion of carrier vesicles to the base of the ciliary membrane. The BBSome complex, together with the LTZL1, controls SMO ciliary trafficking and contributes to the sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway regulation. Required for proper BBSome complex assembly and its ciliary localization. |
