Description
CNN2 Antibody (PACO08487)
The CNN2 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO08487) is a valuable tool for researchers studying CNN2, a protein involved in smooth muscle contraction and regulation. This polyclonal antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in various applications, including Western blotting. By targeting the CNN2 protein, this antibody allows for the detection and analysis of CNN2 expression in different cell types, facilitating research in areas such as cardiovascular health and muscle physiology.CNN2, also known as calponin 2, plays a key role in controlling the contractility of smooth muscle cells, making it a crucial player in processes such as blood vessel dilation and airway constriction.
Dysregulation of CNN2 expression has been implicated in diseases like hypertension, asthma, and gastrointestinal disorders, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target. By studying the function of CNN2, researchers can uncover new insights into the mechanisms underlying these conditions and potentially develop novel treatment strategies.

| UniProt Protein Function: | calponin 2: Thin filament-associated protein that is implicated in the regulation and modulation of smooth muscle contraction. It is capable of binding to actin, calmodulin, troponin C and tropomyosin. The interaction of calponin with actin inhibits the actomyosin Mg-ATPase activity. Belongs to the calponin family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:Actin-binding; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19p13.3 Cellular Component: cytoskeleton; focal adhesion; intercellular junction; membrane; stress fiber Biological Process: cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; regulation of actin filament-based process |
| NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene, which can bind actin, calmodulin, troponin C, and tropomyosin, may function in the structural organization of actin filaments. The encoded protein could play a role in smooth muscle contraction and cell adhesion. Several pseudogenes of this gene have been identified, and are present on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 13, 15, 16, 21 and 22. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015] |
