Inactive precursor forms of SREBPs are bound to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes. When cells are starved for sterols, SREBPs move from the ER to the Golgi apparatus with the help of SREBP cleavage activating protein (SCAP). In the Golgi apparatus, precursor SREBPs are then sequentially cleaved by two proteases, site-1 protease (S1P) and site-2 protease (S2P). The released N-terminal domain that contains the bHLH-Zip region enters the nucleus and binds to sterol response elements (SREs) in the promoters of a variety of genes responsible for the synthesis of cholesterol, fatty acids, and other lipids, activating their expressions (1,2). Studies show that, in the tumor microenvironment, sterol metabolites oxysterols change the activities of SREBP-2 and LXR pathways and, therefore, cause T cell cholesterol deficiency, leading to T cell exhaustion and dysfunction (3). In addition, cholesin, a hormone secreted from the intestine as a reaction to cholesterol absorption, inhibits SREBP-2-mediated cholesterol production in the liver (4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nBHLHD2; Class D basic helix-loop-helix protein 2; Processed sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2; SRBP2; SREBF2; SREBP-2; SREBP2; sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 2; Sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2; Sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 2; Transcription factor SREBF2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 60-65, 124\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797934330025,"sku":"25940S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-25940s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
