Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets MICAL-like protein 2 (gene MICALL2) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 97.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 109 kDa.
MICAL-like protein 2 (MICALL2, also known as JRAB) is a Rab effector that controls the transport of junctional proteins such as occludin, claudins and E-cadherin to the cell surface. By also linking to the actin cytoskeleton, it helps assemble tight and adherens junctions and is studied in epithelial polarity and cell adhesion.

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 U2OS cells, human K562 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 colorectal adenocarcinoma 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): K562 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human MICALL2 fragment (Lys132–Gln741), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places MICAL-like protein 2 in the cell membrane, cell junction, recycling endosome and cell projection. 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).
