Target Full Name: Phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphatase 2

Target Alias: 51C protein; Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase; Inositol polyphosphate phosphatase-like 1; SH2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2; SHIP2

Product Type Specific: SHIP2 (INPPL1) pan-specific antibody

Antibody Code: NP045-1

Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific

Protein UniProt: O15357

Protein SigNET: O15357

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human SHIP2 (INPPL1) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-01BBS90

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CGDREWLDLLRGGLKE

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues G477 to E491

Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.

Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Antibody Concentration: 1 mg/ml

Storage Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, 0.05% Thimerasol

Storage Conditions: For long term storage, keep frozen at -40°C or lower. Stock solution can be kept at +4°C for more than 3 months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Use: Western blotting | Antibody microarray

Antibody Dilution Recommended: 1 µg/ml for immunoblotting

Antibody Species Reactivity: Human

Antibody Positive Control: The observed molecular mass of the processed target protein on SDS-PAGE gels is reported to be around 130-160 kDa.

Scientific Background: SHIP2 (INPPL1) is a phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) phosphatase that specifically hydrolyzes the 5-phosphate of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) to produce PtdIns(3,4)P2, and negatively regulate the PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) pathways. While overexpression reduces both insulin-stimulated MAP kinase and Akt activation, its absence does not affect insulin signalling or GLUT4 trafficking. It confers resistance to dietary obesity. It may also hydrolyze PtdIns(1,3,4,5)P4.
