Rabbit anti-Human SLA2 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9H6Q3

Target Species

Human

Target Name

SLA2

Target Full Name

Src-like-adapter 2

Target Function

Adapter protein, which negatively regulates T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling. Inhibits T-cell antigen-receptor induced activation of nuclear factor of activated T-cells. May act by linking signaling proteins such as ZAP70 with CBL, leading to a CBL dependent degradation of signaling proteins.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm.; [Isoform 1]: Cell membrane. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Note=Localized to the plasma membrane and intracellular vesicles, including late endosomal vesicles.; [Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm. Note=May be cytoplasmic and is not localized to membranes.

Target Tissue Specificity

Predominantly expressed in immune system, with highest levels in peripheral blood leukocytes. Expressed in spleen, thymus and lymph nodes. Expressed in T-cells as well as in monocytes, and at low level in B-cells. Also detected in placenta, prostate, skin

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the SLAP family of adapter proteins. The encoded protein may play an important receptor-proximal role in downregulating T and B cell-mediated responses and inhibits antigen receptor-induced calcium mobilization. This protein interacts with Cas-Br-M (murine) ecotropic retroviral transforming sequence c. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
