PUM2 Antibody

PUM2 (Pumilio homolog 2/Pumilio-2) is a 121-125 kDa member of the PUF family of RNA-binding peoteins. It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including neurons, skeletal muscle cells, stem cells and germ cells, and plays a role in asymmetric cell division. PUM2 appears to bind to the 3' untranslated region of target mRNAs. By doing so, it causes a conformational change in the RNA, allowing for the subsequent binding of miRNAs and the silencing of protein translation. In germ cells, PUM2 is also reported to complex with NANOSI and SNAPIN, although its function in this complex is unclear. Human PUM2 is 1066 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains a SNAPIN interaction site (aa 1-260), one PUM-HD region (aa 706-1048) and eight consecutive pumilio repeats (aa 726-1022). There are six utilized Ser/Thr phosphorylation sites, and at least two isoform variants. One is 95-96 kDa in size and shows a deletion of aa 574-652, while another shows a deletion of two amino acids; Val829Ile830. Over aa 103-250, human PUM2 shares 95% aa sequence identity with mouse PUM2.
