ICC/IF image of ab12369 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab12369, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Supplementary information

Syntaxin 2 (STX2) also known as epimorphin plays an important role in the process of vesicle fusion in cells. This protein is part of the t-SNARE family and has a molecular mass of approximately 33 kDa. STX2 is expressed in various tissues including the brain lungs and kidneys indicating its widespread involvement in cellular processes throughout the body.
Biological function summary

Syntaxin 2 mediates intracellular membrane fusion events. It functions as a component of the SNARE complex which facilitates vesicle targeting and fusion with cell membranes. This activity is necessary for secretory pathways and endocytic processes ensuring proper transport and release of cellular materials. In addition STX2 takes part in regulating insulin exocytosis highlighting its role in maintaining metabolic balance.

Pathways

The protein is central to the vesicular transport and secretory pathways. It interacts with other SNARE proteins like SNAP-25 and VAMP2 forming a complex that drives membrane fusion. Syntaxin 2 also has a connection with the insulin signaling pathway highlighting its contribution to glucose homeostasis and energy metabolism. These interactions show its participation in critical cellular communication and transport pathways.

Syntaxin 2 is linked to certain metabolic and neurological conditions. Its involvement in insulin secretion suggests a connection to type 2 diabetes where dysregulation can affect insulin release. Additionally altered expression or function of STX2 has been examined in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Disruptions involving proteins like APP in conjunction with STX2 might contribute to the development of such disorders indicating STX2's potential as a therapeutic target.
