Anti-HMGB2 (HMG2) antibody produced in rabbit
affinity isolated antibody
Anti-High mobility group protein 2, Anti-High mobility group box 2
The high mobility group (HMG) proteins are subdivided into 3 families based on their functional sequence motif characteristic: the HMGB (formerly HMG-1/-2) family, the HMGN (formerly HMG-14/-17) and the HMGA (formerly HMG-I/Y/C) family. The HMGB protein family, including HMGB1, HMGB2, and HMGB3, are highly conserved (more than 80% amino acid identity), and indistinguishable in their biochemical properties. The high-mobility group box 2 (HMGB2) is a ~25 kDa protein of 209 amino acids that consists of two homologous HMG-boxes rich in basic amino acids and an acidic tail at the carboxy-terminus. HMGB2 is restricted mainly to lymphoid organs and testes, although it is widely expressed in embryogenesis.
