Anti-SPNS2, (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit

The sphingolipid transporter 2/Spinster 2 (SPNS2) gene codes for a transporter of the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signaling lipid. SPNS2 is a multi-pass transmembrane protein, that belongs to the spinster (SPNS)/major facilitator superfamily (MFS) family. It has 12 transmembrane domains. SPNS2 mRNA is seen abundantly in the lung, stomach, and placenta. It is expressed at a moderate level in the cervix, small intestine, brain, skin, lymph node, and other tissues.

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human SPNS2

Anti-SPNS2, (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting (1:1000)/(1:3,000).

The sphingolipid transporter 2/Spinster 2 (SPNS2) protein serves as a mediator to release intracellular sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and thereby regulates S1P. It might play a role in embryogenesis. Members of MFS family regulates the homeostasis in the body by transporting sugars, amino acids, ions, intermediary metabolites, and other small molecules across membranes. Lack of SPNS2 results in a significant reduction in S1P plasma levels. It plays an important role in prostate cancer, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, and liver fibrosis.
