Overview

Product name

Anti-PRG2 antibody [1.B.787]
See all PRG2 products (4) ...

Description

Mouse monoclonal [1.B.787] to PRG2

Specificity

Specific for eosinophil major basic protein (14kDa) irrespective of the stages of eosinophil activation and can be regarded as a “pan-eosinophil” marker. Recognizes secreted pro-form of MBP (Pregnancy associated MBP, 23.8kDa) and mature form found in the matrix of the eosinophil large specific granule (13.8kDa).

Target

Function

Cytotoxin and helminthotoxin. Also induces non-cytolytic histamine release from human basophils. Involved in antiparasitic defense mechanisms and immune hypersensitivity reactions. The proform acts as a proteinase inhibitor, reducing the activity of PAPPA.

Tissue specificity

High levels of the proform in placenta and pregnancy serum; in placenta, localized to X cells of septa and anchoring villi. Lower levels in a variety of other tissues including kidney, myometrium, endometrium, ovaries, breast, prostate, bone marrow and colon.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.

Developmental stage

Levels of the proform increase in serum and placenta during pregnancy.

Post-translational
modifications

Nitrated.

Cellular localization

Cytoplasmic vesicle > secretory vesicle. The proform is secreted. The mature protein is found in the matrix of the eosinophil's large specific granule and Secreted. The proform is secreted.
