Product Overview
Clone ACOA-12 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes rhombotin-2 (gene LMO2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for flow cytometry, immunoprecipitation, IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 18.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 19 kDa.
LMO2 (rhombotin-2) is a LIM-only transcriptional cofactor that assembles a multiprotein complex with TAL1/SCL, GATA1 and LDB1. This complex is essential for the formation of blood stem cells and red blood cells, and it also plays a role in blood vessel development. Aberrant LMO2 expression drives some T-cell acute leukemias.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human Raji cells, rat C6 cells, mouse Neuro-2a cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 1:500 overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:500, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): lymph node of rat lung tissue, mouse lung 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).
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human LMO2.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places rhombotin-2 in the nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
