General notes
ab246342 is the carrier-free version of ab124930.
The mouse and rat recommendation is based on the WB results. This antibody may not be suitable for IHC with mouse or rat samples.
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.
This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.
This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free production

Target
-
Function
Binds to the 5'-UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNAs. Binding is isoform-specific. May regulate translation of target mRNAs. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed in oocytes, granulosa cells of small and growing follicles, Leydig cells, spermatogonia and semen (at protein level). Expressed in testicular cancer (at protein level). Expressed weakly in heart, placenta, skeletal muscle, bone marrow, colon, kidney, salivary glands, testis and pancreas. Detected in fetal liver, fetal ovary, gonocytes and interstitial cells of the testis. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the RRM IMP/VICKZ family.
Contains 4 KH domains.
Contains 2 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains. -
Domain
The third and fourth KH domains are important for binding to the untranslated region (UTR) of target mRNA. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm. Localized in cytoplasmic mRNP granules containing untranslated mRNAs. Localizes at the connecting piece and the tail of the spermatozoa. - Information by UniProt

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human lung carcinoma tissue sections labeling IGF2BP2/IMP-2 with purified ab124930 at 1/200 dilution (4.8 μg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using EDTA Buffer, PH9. Hematoxylin was used to counter stain. ImmunoHistoProbe one step HRP Polymer (ready to use) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/0 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the negative control.

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of HepG2 (Human liver hepatocellular carcinoma cell line) cells labeling IGF2BP2/IMP-2 with purified ab124930 at 1/250 dilution (3.8μg/ml). Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% tritonX-100. Cells were counterstained with ab195889, an anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/200 (2.5 μg/ml). ab150077, a Goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution. DAPI nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab124930).
