Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects protein BTG2 in human samples and is validated for flow cytometry and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 17.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 22 kDa.
BTG2 (also called TIS21 or PC3) is an antiproliferative protein of the BTG/Tob family induced by p53 after DNA damage. It interacts with the CCR4–NOT deadenylase complex to promote mRNA decay, and it helps control cell cycle exit and neuronal differentiation.
