Background

WNT2B (Wingless-Type MMTV Integration Site Family Member 2B), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT2B gene. This gene encodes a member of the wingless-type MMTV integration site (WNT) family of highly conserved, secreted signaling factors. Katoh et al. (1996) used fluorescence in situ hybridization to map the WNT13 gene to chromosome 1p13. WNT family members function in a variety of developmental processes including regulation of cell growth and differentiation and are characterized by a WNT-core domain. This gene may play a role in human development as well as human carcinogenesis.

Reactivity

Human, Mouse, Rat

Cross Reactivity

No cross-reactivity with other proteins

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Wnt2b, identical to the related mouse and rat sequences.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Isoform 1 is expressed in adult heart, brain, placenta, lung, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine and colon. In the adult brain, it is mainly found in the caudate nucleus, subthalamic nucleus and thalamus. Also detected in fetal brain, lung and kidney. Isoform 2 is expressed in fetal brain, fetal lung, fetal kidney, caudate nucleus, testis and cancer cell lines.

Applications

IHC, WB

Field of Research

Cancer, Oncoproteins/Suppressors, Secreted, Signal Transduction, Signaling Pathways, Stem Cells, Tumor Suppressors

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

Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors. Probable developmental protein. May be a signaling molecule which affects the development of discrete regions of tissues. Is likely to signal over only few cell diameters. May be involved in normal development or differentiation as well as in carcinogenesis.
