Rabbit anti-Human TMX2 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9Y320

Target Species

Human

Target Name

TMX2

Target Full Name

Thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein 2

Target Function

Endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria-associated protein that probably functions as a regulator of cellular redox state and thereby regulates protein post-translational modification, protein folding and mitochondrial activity. Indirectly regulates neuronal proliferation, migration, and organization in the developing brain.

Target Subcellular Location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Mitochondrion membrane.

Target Tissue Specificity

Widely expressed.

Target Research Area

Target Synonyms

Cell proliferation inducing gene 26 protein; Cell proliferation-inducing gene 26 protein; CGI 31; Growth inhibiting gene 11; PDIA12; PIG26; Protein disulfide isomerase family A; member 12; Thioredoxin domain containing protein 14; Thioredoxin domain-containing protein 14; Thioredoxin related transmembrane protein 2; Thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein 2; tmx2; TMX2_HUMAN; TXNDC14

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the disulfide isomerase (PDI) family of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins that catalyze protein folding and thiol-disulfide interchange reactions. The encoded protein has an N-terminal ER-signal sequence, a catalytically active thioredoxin domain, one transmembrane domain and a C-terminal ER-retention sequence. This protein is enriched on the mitochondria-associated-membrane of the ER via palmitoylation of two of its cytosolically exposed cysteines.
