Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity Notch2 (8A1) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Notch2 protein. Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a recombinant protein consisting of the heterodimerization domain of human Notch2. Background Notch proteins (Notch1-4) are a family of transmembrane receptors that play important roles in development and the determination of cell fate (1). Mature Notch receptors are processed and assembled as heterodimeric proteins, with each dimer composed of a large extracellular ligand-binding domain, a single-pass transmembrane domain, and a smaller cytoplasmic subunit (Notch intracellular domain, NICD) (2). Binding of Notch receptors to ligands of the Delta-Serrate-Lag2 (DSL) family triggers heterodimer dissociation, exposing the receptors to proteolytic cleavages; these result in release of the NICD, which translocates to the nucleus and activates transcription of downstream target genes (3,4). Notch2 is a member of Notch family and mutation in Notch2 is associated with Alagille syndrome (5).
