Stemcell, 60143, Anti-SHIP2 Antibody, Polyclonal

SHIP2 is a 145 kDa SHIP-related protein expressed in both hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. Like SH2-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP), SHIP2 becomes tyrosine phosphorylated and associated with the adaptor protein, Shc, following cytokine, growth factor, chemokine, and immunoreceptor stimulation. SHIP2 also hydrolyzes the critical phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3-kinase (PI3K)-generated second messenger, PI-3,4,5-P3 (PIP3), to PI-3,4-P2 1,2 and therefore acts as an important negative regulator of the PI3K pathway. This antibody reacts with mouse and human full-length 145 kDa SHIP2 protein.
