Proteasome subunit alpha type-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PSMA2 gene. The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered ring-shaped 20S core structure. The core structure is composed of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; 2 rings are composed of 7 alpha subunits and 2 rings are composed of 7 beta subunits. Proteasomes are distributed throughout eukaryotic cells at a high concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP\/ubiquitin-dependent process in a non-lysosomal pathway. An essential function of a modified proteasome, the immunoproteasome, is the processing of class I MHC peptides. This gene encodes a member of the peptidase T1A family, that is a 20S core alpha subunit. Functional note: The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex which is characterized by its ability to cleave peptides with Arg, Phe, Tyr, Leu, and Glu adjacent to the leaving group at neutral or slightly basic pH. The proteasome has an ATP-dependent proteolytic activity. PSMA2 may have a potential regulatory effect on another component (s) of the proteasome complex through tyrosine phosphorylation. Reported localization: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cytoplasm, P-body . Colocalizes with TRIM5 in the cytoplasmic bodies. . Expression\/tissue context: Expressed at high levels in the brain, liver, kidney and pancreas, and very weakly expressed in the thymus, prostate, testis and colon.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProteasome: Researchers commonly examine how PSMA2 (Proteasome subunit alpha type-2) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProteasome \/ Ubiquitin: Researchers commonly examine how PSMA2 (Proteasome subunit alpha type-2) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProteolysis\/Ubiquitin: Researchers commonly examine how PSMA2 (Proteasome subunit alpha type-2) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWestern blotting: compare relative PSMA2 (Proteasome subunit alpha type-2) levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecificity notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e No cross reactivity with other proteins.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCross-reactivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e No cross-reactivity with other proteins.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIsoforms and PTMs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD\/KO samples when available.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt entry for P25787: https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/P25787\/entry - PubMed search (PSMA2): https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=PSMA2 - NCBI Gene search (PSMA2): https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=PSMA2 - Antibody validation concepts (NIH): https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/research-training\/rigor-reproducibility --\u003e","brand":"Boster Bio","offers":[{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Unconjugated","offer_id":53066843947373,"sku":"PB10088","price":370.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Biotin","offer_id":53067246961005,"sku":"PB10088-Biotin","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Cy3","offer_id":53067246993773,"sku":"PB10088-Cy3","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro488","offer_id":53067247026541,"sku":"PB10088-Fluoro488","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro550","offer_id":53067247059309,"sku":"PB10088-Fluoro550","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro594","offer_id":53067247092077,"sku":"PB10088-Fluoro594","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ FITC","offer_id":53067247124845,"sku":"PB10088-FITC","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ HRP","offer_id":53067247157613,"sku":"PB10088-HRP","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ APC","offer_id":53067247190381,"sku":"PB10088-APC","price":820.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ PE","offer_id":53067247223149,"sku":"PB10088-PE","price":820.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro647","offer_id":53067247255917,"sku":"PB10088-Fluoro647","price":670.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Carrier Free","offer_id":53067247288685,"sku":"PB10088-carrier-free","price":370.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/pb10088-1-WB-anti-psma2-picoband-antibody.jpg?v=1772608247","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/anti-proteasome-20s-alpha-2-psma2-antibody-picoband-bha21000993","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
