Frizzled 2 (E240) polyclonal antibody
Antibody type
Polyclonal
Antigen
Synthetic peptide, corresponding to amino acids 208-260 of Human Frizzled-2.
Description
The frizzled gene, originally identified in Drosophila melanogaster, is involved in the development of tissue polarity. The frizzled proteins contain seven transmembrane domains, a cysteine-rich domain in the extracellular region and a carboxy-terminal Ser/Thr-XXX-Val motif. The proteins in this family function as receptors for Wnt and are generally coupled to G proteins. Frizzleds are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. Frizzled-2 is expressed in the fetal kidney and lung and in the adult ovary and colon. Frizzled-2 mediates the Wnt/cGMP/Ca2+ pathway. It binds Wnt proteins and signals by activating the release of stored calcium. Frizzled-2 expression is regulated by Angiotensin II. Activated frizzled-2 suppresses the activity of protein kinase G, and activates NFAT-dependent transcription, the phosphatidylinositol pathway and calcium sensitive enzymes.
