This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
IGF2BP2 is a member of the IGF-II mRNA-binding protein (IMP) family. It recruits target transcripts to cytoplasmic protein-RNA complexes. The protein contains several four KH domains and two RRM domains. It functions by binding to the 5' UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNA and regulating IGF2 translation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. Autoantibodies against IGF2BP2 are detected in sera from some patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
