SMADs are essential intracellular components for the signal transduction of TGFβ family members. SMAD2 is an intracellular mediator of TGFβ family and activin type 1 receptor (1). SMAD2 mediate TGFβ signaling to regulate cell growth and differentiation. SMAD2 is released from cytoplasmic retention by TGFβ receptor-mediated phosphorylation. The phosphorylated SMAD2 then forms a heterodimeric complex with SMAD4, and this complex translocates from cytoplasm into nucleus. By interacting with DNA-binding proteins, SMAD2 complexes then positively or negatively regulate the transcription of target genes. Inactivating mutations in SMAD2 have been found in various cancers (2). SMAD2 Protein is ideal for investigators involved in Signaling Proteins, Transcription Proteins, AKT/PKB Pathway, Angiogenesis, Cancer, Cell Cycle, Cellular Stress, ERK/MAPK Pathway, Inflammation, JAK/STAT Pathway, JNK/SAPK Pathway, NfkB Pathway, and WNT Signaling research.
SMAD2 Protein is stored in 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150mM NaCl, 10mM glutathione, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.25mM DTT, 0.1mM PMSF, 25% glycerol. SMAD2 Protein is suitable for use in Western Blot and Kinase Assay. Expect a band approximately ~90kDa on specific lysates or tissues. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
