Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity GLI2 (E7R1N) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total GLI2 protein. Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro1087 of human GLI2 protein. Background GLI was first identified as a gene amplified in a malignant glioma (1) capable of transforming primary cells in cooperation with adenovirus E1A (2). GLI belongs to the Krüppel family of zinc finger proteins that includes three mammalian GLI proteins: GLI1, GLI2, and GLI3 (3). These GLI proteins are similar to the homolog Cubitus interruptus (Ci) and function as transcription factors activated by the Hedgehog signaling pathway. Hedgehog signaling plays an important role in animal development, and research studies have shown that this pathway is aberrantly activated in many types of cancers (4,5). GLI2 contains both transcription repression and activation domains (6), and several isoforms of GLI2 have been reported that may have different activities (7-9). Overexpression of GLI2 in skin causes basal cell carcinoma in mice (10), while loss-of-function of GLI2 is associated with pituitary anomalies (11).
