Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human SEPT2. AA range:103-152
Specificity
Septin 2 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of Septin 2 protein.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
WB 1:500-2000;IHC-p 1:50-300
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
function:Required for normal progress through mitosis. Involved in cytokinesis.,similarity:Belongs to the septin family.,subcellular location:Accumulates near the contractile ring from anaphase through telophase, and finally condenses into the midbody. In interphase and postmitotic cells, localised to fibrous or granular structures, depending on the growth state of the cell.,subunit:Monomer, and homodimer. Nucleotide binding promotes dimerization. Heterohexamer composed of two heterotrimers containing one copy each of SEPT2, SEPT6 and SEPT7. The asymmetrical heterotrimers associate head-to-head to form a hexameric unit that assembles into filaments.,

Cellular localization
Cytoplasm . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle . Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore . Cleavage furrow . Midbody . Cytoplasm, cell cortex . Cell projection, cilium membrane . Cell projection, cilium, flagellum . In metaphase cells, localized within the microtubule spindle. At the metaphase plate, in close apposition to the kinetochores of the congressed chromosomes. In cells undergoing cytokinesis, localized to the midbody, the ingressing cleavage furrow, and the central spindle. During bacterial infection, displays a collar shape structure next to actin at the pole of invading bacteria. In epithelial cells, colocalizes with polyglutamylated tubulin around the trans-Golgi network, as well as juxatnuclear and proximal Golgi apparatus. Localizes at the base of the cil
