This protein has a mass of approximately 35 kDa. MAGEA2 expresses in a wide range of cancers and is usually absent in normal tissues except in the testis and placenta. This makes it a significant target for cancer research particularly in developing cancer vaccines and immunotherapies.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMAGEA2 plays a role in regulating the p53 tumor suppressor pathway. It interacts with other proteins to inhibit p53 activity impacting cell cycle control and apoptosis. MAGEA2 is not generally part of a larger macromolecular complex but it can interact with several proteins that modulate its effects on cellular processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nFocusing on cell cycle and apoptosis reveals that MAGEA2 participates in inhibiting the p53 pathway. This suppression helps cancer cells evade normal growth control mechanisms. In addition to p53 MAGEA2 associates with proteins such as HDAC3 involved in transcriptional regulation. These interactions make it an intriguing target for modulating key pathways involved in cell proliferation and survival.\u003cbr\u003e\nMAGEA2 shows strong associations with various cancers including melanoma and lung cancer. Its ability to suppress p53 activity connects it to the pathogenesis of these diseases where normal p53 function is often compromised. MAGEA2's interaction with proteins like HDAC3 also implies that targeting this network can potentially reverse aberrant epigenetic modifications seen in these cancers offering a therapeutic avenue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46848631931049,"sku":"ab71786","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab71786","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
