| Antigen |
:Human |
| Host Animal |
:Mouse |
| Cross Reactivity |
:Human |
| Labeled |
:Unlabeled |
| Preparation |
:Produced in mice immunized with synthetic peptides, aa873-898 (EDPAPALKELFVLPGEPRSQLHQLPK),
which is corresponding to the insert site of cytosolic domain of human apoE receptor 2 (apoER2). ApoER2
specific IgG was purified from mouse ascites fluid with a proteinA-Sepharose. |
| Formulation |
:0.2 µm filtered PBS solution |
| Specificity |
:This antibody has been selected for its ability to bind for human apoER2 expressed in CHO cells (ldl-A7).
No cross-reactivity with human LDL receptor and VLDL receptor was confirmed (see ref. 1). |
| Application |
:Western Blot –
This antibody can be used at 1.0 µg/mL for western blot analysis.
:Histology –
This antibody can be used as a 1st antibody for immunohistochemistry. Please see reference (1) for details.
Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application.

ApoER2 in the Cell
- Functions as a cell surface receptor for signal transduction and endocytosis
- Expressed in neurons' apical dendrites, cell bodies, and dendritic processes
- Participates in synaptic plasticity and long-term potentiation
- Interacts with proteins like Reelin, Apolipoprotein E, and Selenoprotein P
- Contains a unique cytoplasmic tail with a proline-rich insert
- Binds to PSD-95 and JIP-2, important for NMDA receptor signaling and JNK pathway modulation
ApoER2 in the Human Body
- Vital for brain development and function
- Regulates cortical lamination and neuronal migration during embryonic development
- Critical for learning and memory processes in the adult brain • Highly expressed in the neocortex, cerebellum, hippocampus, and olfactory bulb
- Found in non-neural tissues: placenta, testis, ovary, and platelets
- Essential for selenium transport to organs like the brain and testes
- Crucial for preventing neurodegeneration and maintaining male fertility
- Alterations in ApoER2 associated with neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease
