Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets MAGE-like protein 2 (gene MAGEL2) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 132.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 133 kDa.
MAGEL2 is a MAGE-family protein expressed mainly in the hypothalamus that likely boosts RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. Working with TRIM27 and USP7, it regulates retromer-dependent endosomal recycling, and it is one of the imprinted genes of the Prader-Willi region, with truncating mutations causing Schaaf-Yang syndrome.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human) |
| Flow cytometry (fixed cells) | 1–3 µg/1×106 cells (Human) |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human U251 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 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human liver cancer tissue, human placenta 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 a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): Jurkat cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human MAGEL2 fragment (Gln578–Ala847), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places MAGE-like protein 2 in the early endosome, cytoplasm and nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in placenta, fetal and adult brain. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
