Description

The LMP2 polyclonal antibody is an IgG that recognizes and binds specifically to the Epstein-Barr virus LMP2 protein. LMP2 mainly helps the Epstein-Barr virus evade the immune system and establish a persistent infection in host cells. Its activity is critical in the development of EBV-associated malignancies such as Hodgkin's lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

The LMP2 polyclonal antibody is generated from rabbits. The recombinant Epstein-Barr virus (1-147aa) is used as the immunogen. After protein G purification, this LMP2 antibody reaches up to 95% in purity. It is suitable for use in ELISA.

Target Background

Function

Isoform LMP2A maintains EBV latent infection of B-lymphocyte, by preventing lytic reactivation of the virus in response to surface immunoglobulin (sIg) cross-linking. Acts like a dominant negative inhibitor of the sIg-associated protein tyrosine kinases, LYN and SYK. Also blocks translocation of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) into lipid rafts, preventing the subsequent signaling and accelerated internalization of the BCR upon BCR cross-linking. Serves as a molecular scaffold to recruit SYK, LYN and E3 protein-ubiquitin ligases, such as ITCH and NEDD4L, leading to ubiquitination and potential degradation of both tyrosines kinases. Possesses a constitutive signaling activity in non-transformed cells, inducing bypass of normal B lymphocyte developmental checkpoints allowing immunoglobulin-negative cells to colonize peripheral lymphoid organs.; Isoform LMP2B may be a negative regulator of isoform LMP2A.
