Immunogen:The exact immunogen used to generate this antibody is proprietary information.,
Specificity:This antibody was raised against a dual phosphorated peptide for both phosopho S467 and phosopho S465. The dot blot shows that this antibody binds phosopho S467 on its own, but binding is enhanced by the presence of phosopho S465. Our data suggests shown in the dot blot that this antibody does not bind phosopho S465 alone.

Smad2 also known as Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2 (MAD2) or MADR2 is a signaling protein involved in the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-Β) receptor pathway. Smad2 has a molecular mass of approximately 58 kDa and expresses in various tissues including epithelial mesenchymal and endothelial cells. Smad2 undergoes phosphorylation on serine residues in response to TGF-Β signaling converting it into phosphorylated forms often referred to as p-Smad2 or phospho-Smad2. These phosphorylated forms are critical for the relay of signals from the cell surface to the nucleus.
Biological function summary
Smad2 acts as an intracellular mediator for TGF-Β signaling a pathway important for regulating cell proliferation differentiation and apoptosis. Smad2 typically functions as part of a heteromeric complex with Smad4 another key player in TGF-Β signaling. Upon activation phosphorylated Smad2 combines with Smad4 to form a complex that translocates into the nucleus. This complex then binds to specific DNA sequences to regulate the transcription of target genes involved in processes such as cell growth inhibition and extracellular matrix production.
Pathways
Smad2 is integral to the TGF-Β and activin receptor signaling pathways. These pathways are essential in controlling cell growth and immune responses. Smad2 interacts with other proteins such as Smad3 in addition to Smad4 to modulate gene expression effectively. The interaction between Smad2 and these proteins ensures precise control of cellular responses to external stimuli emphasizing its pivotal role in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
Smad2 correlates with various pathological conditions including fibrosis and cancer. Aberrant Smad2 signaling can contribute to the development of these diseases as excessive TGF-Β signaling promotes fibrotic tissue deposition and tumor progression. Smad2 connects with other proteins like Smad3 in these pathological contexts both acting as mediators of abnormal cellular behaviors. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms of Smad2 can help develop therapeutic strategies against disorders linked to dysregulated TGF-Β signaling.
