| Description: | Histidine triad nucleotide binding protein 2 (HINT2) is a mitochondrial protein. This protein is an AMP-lysine hydrolase and phosphoamidase and may contribute to tumor suppression. This protein is a member of the HIT superfamily and Hint subfamily, which are characterized as nucleotide hydrolases and transferases that act on the alpha-phosphate of ribonucleotides. HINT2 regulates steroidogenesis through calcium-dependent and calcium-independent signalling pathways that may serve to maintain a favorable mitochondrial potential. Its role in calcium homeostasis may also contribute to its proapoptotic function in hepatocytes and other non-steroidogenic cells, though the exact mechanism remains unclear. |
| Further Information: | The antibody has been tested by ELISA, Western blot analysis and Flow cytometry to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. |
