Background

TRAM2 (Translocation-Associating Membrane Protein 2), also called KIAA0057, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRAM2 gene. TRAM2 is a component of the translocon, a gated macromolecular channel that controls the posttranslational processing of nascent secretory and membrane proteins at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. By genomic sequence analysis, Onuchic et al. (1999) mapped the TRAM2 gene to chromosome 6p21.1-p12 near the PKHD1 gene. Upon activation, quiescent hepatic stellate cells proliferate, change morphologically into myofibroblasts, and increase their synthesis of extracellular matrix proteins. Stefanovic et al. (2004) demonstrated that both TRAM2 and collagen type I are upregulated in activated rat and human hepatic stellate cells.

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of mouse TRAM2, identical to the related rat sequence, and different from the related human sequence by one amino acid.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Applications

WB

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

Necessary for collagen type I synthesis. May couple the activity of the ER Ca (2+) pump SERCA2B with the activity of the translocon. This coupling may increase the local Ca (2+) concentration at the site of collagen synthesis, and a high Ca (2+) concentration may be necessary for the function of molecular chaperones involved in collagen folding (By similarity). .

Components

Each vial contains 5mg BSA, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg Thimerosal, 0.05mg NaN3.
