- Extra Details:
- Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is a mitochondrial inner membrane transport protein that is expressed in a wide range of tissues (1). UCP2 inhibits mitochondrial glucose oxidation and promotes glycolysis in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) (2). During early differentiation of hPSCs, the expression of UCP2 is repressed, which results in reduced glycolysis (2). This demonstrates a role for UCP2 in the metabolic reprogramming during differentiation of hPSCs (2). Overexpression of UCP2 in cancer cells stimulates oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and inhibits cell proliferation (3). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% nonfat dry milk, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
