Clone 8C10-1H11 specifically detects Lamina-associated polypeptide 2 alpha (LAP2alpha) in murine species. It targets an epitope in the internal region.

His-tagged recombinant fragment corresponding to 507 amino acids from the C-terminal region.

Evaluated by Western Blotting in Knockout (KO) vs. wild-type (WT) mouse fibroblast cell lysates.

Western Blotting Analysis: 1 µg/mL of this antibody detected Lamina-associated polypeptide 2, isoforms alpha (LAP2alpha) in wild-type, but not in Knockout (KO) mouse fibroblast cell lysates.

Lamina-associated polypeptide 2, isoforms alpha (UniProt: Q61033; also known as Thymopoietin isoform alpha, TP alpha) is encoded by the Tmpo (also known as Lap2) gene (Gene ID: 21917) in murine species. LAP2alpha is a non-membrane bound, oligomeric nucleoplasmic protein that associates directly or indirectly with lamins at specific cell-cycle stages. It is expressed diffusely throughout the nucleus and is involved in the structural organization of the nucleus and in the post-mitotic nuclear assembly. It is shown to interact with A-type lamins to control gene expression, transcription, and chromatin organization. The N-terminal part of LAP2alpha contains two structurally independent, non-interacting domains: LEM (LAPEmerin-MAN1)-like domain that binds DNA and a LEM domain that interacts with BANF1. Its C-terminal domain forms a four-stranded coiled coil. Lamin A/C and LAP2alpha complexes predominantly co-occur in euchromatic genomic regions and are shown to be highly mobile. They can bind chromatin in a dynamic manner and are involved in establishing a chromatin environment that is permissive for epigenetic regulation. Loss of LAP2alpha has been linked to increased proliferation of tissue progenitor cells in epidermis, colon, and the hematopoietic system and delayed skeletal muscle differentiation.
