Anti-Sirt2 antibody produced in rabbit

Description

• General description: Rabbit polyclonal anti-Sirt2 antibody recognizes mouse, rat (37/43 kDa), and human (43 kDa) Sirt2. Detection of the Sirt2 bands by immunoblotting is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide.
• Immunogen: synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 341-352 of mouse Sirt2, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is identical in rat and differs by one amino acid in human Sirt2.
• Application: Anti-Sirt2 antibody has been used in western blotting and immunofluorescence.
• Biochem/physiol Actions: Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) maintains the integrity of the genome. Inhibition of SIRT2 can lead to neuroprotection in cellular and invertebrate models of Huntington′s disease. SIRT2 can deacetylate lys40 of α-tubulin both in vitro and in vivo. Knockdown of SIRT2 by small interfering RNA (siRNA) leads to tubulin hyperacetylation.
• Physical form: Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
