Product Usage Information Western Blotting: 1:1000 Immunoprecipitation: 1:50 Storage Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity Erlin-2 Antibody detects endogenous levels of human erlin-2 protein. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse Source / Purification Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Gln315 of mouse erlin-2. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography. Background Erlin-1 and erlin-2 (SPFH1 and SPFH2) are SPFH domain-containing proteins that belong to the prohibitin family (1,2). The N-termal domain of erlin proteins contains ER-targeting sequences responsible for their translocation to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (3). In the ER, erlin-1 and erlin-2 specifically associate with the detergent resistant lipid raft microdomain of the membrane (3). Erlin-1 may be involved in dentritic cell activation (4) and erlin-2 has been shown to regulate the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway by interacting with endogenous substrates and resulting in their polyubiquitination and degradation (5).
