Relevance
|
VAV2 is a ubiquitously expressed structural homolog of the VAV protooncogene that is expressed preferentially in hematopoetic cells. Both proteins are comprised of a Dbl homology (DH) domain with guanosine nucleotide exchange (GEF) activity exclusively directed towards Rho/Rac GTPases, a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a calponin-homology (CH) region, an acidic domain (AD) a zinc finger butterfly motif, two SH3 regions and one SH2 domain. GEF activity of RhoA family G proteins is induced by tyrosine phosphorylation in wild type VAV2, and is constitutively activated in N terminus deleted oncogene forms. Constitutive expression of a VAV2 oncoprotein may result in morphological alterations including highly enlarged cells in which karyokinesis and cytokinesis frequently are uncoupled.

Western blot - VAV2 antibody (ab86699)
All lanes : VAV2 antibody (ab86699) at 1/1000 dilution
Lane 1 : A431 cells treated with EGF Lane 2 : A431 cells treated with EGF, exposed to alkaline
phosphatase
Predicted band size : 100 kDa Observed band size : 100 kDa Additional bands at : <100 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.
Western blot membranes were incubated with diluted antibody in 5% non-fat milk, PBS, 0.04% Tween20 for 1hour at room temperature.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - VAV2 antibody (ab86699)
Immunocytochemical labeling of VAV2 in paraformaldehyde-fixed and NP40 permeabilized rabbit spleen fibroblasts. The cells were labeled with ab86699 at a 1/50 dilution and detected using an appropriate secondary antibody conjugated to Cy3.
