Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.

Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

Activity summary

SMURF2 also known as SMAD specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in protein ubiquitination. It weighs approximately 85 kDa and is part of the NEDD4 family of E3 ligases. SMURF2 facilitates the transfer of ubiquitin from an E2 conjugating enzyme to specific substrate proteins marking them for degradation via the proteasome pathway. This protein is widely expressed in various tissues including brain kidney and liver indicating its essential role in different cellular processes.

Biological function summary

SMURF2 regulates many cell signaling pathways including the TGF-beta/Smad pathway. It associates with SMAD proteins to control their stability and activity acting as a negative regulator to modulate TGF-beta signaling. By promoting the ubiquitination and degradation of receptor-regulated SMADs (R-SMADs) SMURF2 impacts cellular responses to growth factors. This regulatory mechanism is important for maintaining cellular proliferation differentiation and apoptosis.

Pathways

The function of SMURF2 significantly influences the TGF-beta and BMP signaling pathways both critical in controlling cell growth and differentiation. These pathways involve interactions with other proteins like SMAD7 and SMAD2. SMURF2 interacts with SMAD7 an inhibitory SMAD to regulate Smad-dependent transcriptional responses ensuring the fine-tuning of signal transduction. These pathways' balance and regulation are vital for appropriate cellular function and response.

Associated diseases and disorders

SMURF2 has connections to cancer and fibrosis. Aberrant regulation of SMURF2 contributes to tumorigenesis where its altered expression levels can lead to unrestrained cell growth and cancer progression particularly in breast and prostate cancers. Additionally SMURF2 is involved in fibrosis with its dysregulation affecting extracellular matrix deposition. In both cancer and fibrosis SMURF2 interacts with TGF-beta and other related proteins highlighting its involvement in disease progression and sustaining pathological states.
