General description
Cerebral cavernous malformation 2 (CCM2) is an adaptor protein consisting of two domains. Structurally, it has two domains, N-terminal phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain and an independent domain named as Karet domain at the C-terminal end. It is mapped on human chromosome 7p. Its phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain has the ability to bind proteins. It is expressed in vascular endothelium and neuroglial precursor cells during development and also observed in arterial endothelium, neurons, and some of the glial cells in adult neocortex.
Immunogen
Peptide with sequence C-KGEKSRDKKAHEK from the internal region of the protein sequence according to NP_001025006.1; NP_113631.1.
Application
Anti-CCM2 antibody produced in goat is suitable for indirect ELISA and western blot assay.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cerebral cavernous malformation 2 (CCM2) is associated with several cellular pathways. It mainly behaves as a scaffold protein in the activation of GTPase Rac-dependent p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) during hyperosmotic stress. It also participates in vascular integrity. CCM2 may play a role in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis during the development of the brain. Mutation in the gene is associated with familial cerebral cavernous malformations.
