Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes ras GTPase-activating-like protein IQGAP2 in human and mouse samples and is validated for ELISA, flow cytometry, ICC/IF, IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 180.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 181 kDa.
IQGAP2 is a scaffold protein of the IQGAP family that binds active CDC42 and RAC1 as well as calmodulin, without stimulating their GTPase activity. It is expressed mainly in the liver and regulates the actin cytoskeleton, and it has been studied as a potential tumor suppressor.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human Caco-2 cells, human HepG2 cells, human HEL cells, human K562 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 10% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human lung cancer tissue, human mammary cancer tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): MCF-7 cells.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): U2OS cells, SiHa cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human IQGAP2 fragment (Ala1329–Gln1544), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and mouse. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Isoform 2 expression is enhanced in testis. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
