Methionine Adenosyltransferase II Alpha, Mouse Anti Human Shipping:Ice Packs Synonyms MATA2, MATII, SAMS2, MAT-2A, S-adenosylmethionine synthetase isoform type-2, AdoMet synthetase 2, Methionine adenosyltransferase 2, Methionine adenosyltransferase II, MAT2A, AMS2. Type Mouse Anti Human Monoclonal. Introduction MAT2A is an important enzyme in cellular metabolism and catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) from L-methionine and ATP. MAT2A is expressed in extrahepatic tissues. In liver, MAT2A expression associates with growth, dedifferentiation, and cancer. NF-kappa B and AP-1 are necessary for basal MAT2A expression in HepG2 cells and mediate the increase in MAT2A expression in response to TNF-alpha. Up-regulation of MAT2A provides growth improvement and s-adenosylmethionine and methylthioadenosine thus can block mitogenic signaling in colon cancer cells. Lower expression of both MAT2A and MAT2beta and interfere with leptin signaling in liver cancer cells. Clone PAT3A2AT. Immunogen Anti-human MAT2A mAb is derived from hybridization of mouse F0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant human MAT2A amino acids 1-395 purified from E. coli. Ig Subclass Mouse IgG2b heavy chain and κ light chain. Purification Method MAT2A antibody was purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-G affinity chromatography. Protein formulation 1mg/ml containing PBS, pH-7.4, & 0.1% Sodium Azide. Storage Procedures For periods up to 1 month store at 4°C, for longer periods of time, store at -20°C.
