Since then, LMO2 has been found to be a master regulator essential for erythroid development, as evidenced by homozygous LMO2 knockouts resulting in embryonic lethality in mice (2). LMO2 is an intrinsically unstructured protein that does not bind DNA directly, but rather acts as a scaffolding protein that recruits various transcription factors via its tandem cysteine-rich LIM domains to form a multi-protein DNA binding complex (3,4). The LMO2 complex plays a major role in hematopoiesis and was originally shown to consist of the transcription factors TAL1, E47, and GATA-1 in erythroid lineage cells, but variations of this complex may contain alternate transcription factors including LYL1, TAL2, GATA-2, and GATA-3 (5-9). The LMO2 complex also requires interaction with LIM-domain binding protein 1 (LDB1), which is necessary for LMO2 protein stability (10-11). In addition to hematopoietic tissue, LMO2 is also expressed in embryonic brain tissue, where it associates with BEX2 and the transcription factor NSCL-2 (12). Aberrant LMO2 expression is observed in several types of hematopoietic cancers, including large diffuse B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), B-cell acute leukemia, (B-ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and T-ALL (13-16). LMO2-mediated T-ALL is primarily caused by the translocation t(11;14)(p13;q11) with the gene from chromosome 14q11, or the t(7;11)(q35;p13) translocation involving from 7q35 (1). In addition to hematopoietic cancers, overexpression of LMO2 in prostate stromal cells also facilitates prostate cancer progression by inducing expression of Interleukin-11 (IL-11), which stimulates STAT3 signaling in these cells (17).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCysteine-rich protein TTG-2; LIM domain only 2; LIM domain only 2 (rhombotin-like 1); LIM domain only protein 2; LMO-2; LMO2; RBTN2; RBTNL1; RHOM2; rhombotin 2; Rhombotin-2; rhombotin-like 1; T-cell translocation gene 2; T-cell translocation protein 2; TTG2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 18\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799967912105,"sku":"87182S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-87182s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
