- Extra Details:
- Kinesin heavy chain member 2 is a kinesin-like motor protein. The kinesin-related proteins are involved in functions related to movements of organelles, microtubules, or chromosomes along microtubules. These functions include axonal transport, microtubule sliding during nuclear fusion or division, and chromosome disjunction during meiosis and early mitosis. The kinesins are tetramers composed of 2 heavy and 2 light chains. The N-terminal heavy chain sequences show similarity in all the kinesin-related proteins. The N-terminal part forms the motor domain, with the microtubule-binding region allowing the protein to slide along the microtubule. It also possesses an ATP-binding site allowing an ATPase activity that provides the energy required for the movement. Kinesin-like motor proteins are found in several vertebrate cell types but is strongly expressed in neuronal cells. In dividing cells it is required for bipolar spindle formation and chromosome segregation. In neuronal cells it is involved in neurite outgrowth. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (paraffin), and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: 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 at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
