Gene Symbol PFN2
Gene Full Name profilin 2
Background The protein encoded by this gene is a ubiquitous actin monomer-binding protein belonging to the profilin family. It is thought to regulate actin polymerization in response to extracellular signals. There are two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Binds to actin and affects the structure of the cytoskeleton. At high concentrations, profilin prevents the polymerization of actin, whereas it enhances it at low concentrations. By binding to PIP2, it inhibits the formation of IP3 and DG. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 15 kDa

    Flow Cytometry: A431 cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum and stained with ARG40835 anti-Profilin 2 antibody (blue) at 1 µg/10^6 cells for 30 min at 20°C, followed by incubation with DyLight®488 labelled secondary antibody. Isotype control antibody (green) was Rabbit IgG (1 µg/10^6 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (red) was also used as a control.

  • ARG40835 anti-Profilin 2 antibody IHC-P image

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin-embedded Human tonsil tissue. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in Citrate buffer (pH 6.0, epitope retrieval solution) for 20 min. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then stained with ARG40835 anti-Profilin 2 antibody at 1 µg/ml, overnight at 4°C.

    Western blot: 50 µg of samples under reducing conditions. Human placenta, Rat brain and Mouse brain lysates stained with ARG40835 anti-Profilin 2 antibody at 0.5 µg/ml, overnight at 4°C.

  • ARG40835 anti-Profilin 2 antibody IHC-P image

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin-embedded Human intestinal cancer tissue. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in Citrate buffer (pH 6.0, epitope retrieval solution) for 20 min. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then stained with ARG40835 anti-Profilin 2 antibody at 1 µg/ml, overnight at 4°C.
