PTPRN2 (Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, N polypeptide 2) is a transmembrane protein belonging to the PTP (Protein tyrosine phosphatase) family. It consists of a hydrophobic region, one N-glycosylation site, and a motif for the adhesive recognition. It is predominantly expressed in the endocrine and neuronal cells. It is involved in the cell exocytosis process. Immature PTPRN2 interacts with a scaffold protein TRAF2 (TNF receptor-associated factor 2) via different kinase cascades. PTPRN2 has been suggested as a potential biomarker in breast cancer since it promotes apoptosis and restricts tumor formation. It has also been reported that PTPRN2 is a major autoantigen in the insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide
