Product overview
- Mouse Smad2 Antibody Pair is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Mouse Smad2 in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.
- The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:
- - Sandwich ELISA
- - FRET/TR-FRET/HTR
- - Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
- - Luminex® and bead-based assays
- - AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
- - DELFIA® immunoassays
- - Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
- - Multiplex
- Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:
- - Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
- - Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.
- Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with
- We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.
- Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.
- Please note:
- The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.
- The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.
- We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

Function
Receptor-regulated SMAD (R-SMAD) that is an intracellular signal transducer and transcriptional modulator activated by TGF-beta (transforming growth factor) and activin type 1 receptor kinases. Binds the TRE element in the promoter region of many genes that are regulated by TGF-beta and, on formation of the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, activates transcription. May act as a tumor suppressor in colorectal carcinoma. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed at high levels in skeletal muscle, heart and placenta. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the dwarfin/SMAD family.
Contains 1 MH1 (MAD homology 1) domain.
Contains 1 MH2 (MAD homology 2) domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated on one or several of Thr-220, Ser-245, Ser-250, and Ser-255. In response to TGF-beta, phosphorylated on Ser-465/467 by TGF-beta and activin type 1 receptor kinases. Able to interact with SMURF2 when phosphorylated on Ser-465/467, recruiting other proteins, such as SNON, for degradation. In response to decorin, the naturally occurring inhibitor of TGF-beta signaling, phosphorylated on Ser-240 by CaMK2. Phosphorylated by MAPK3 upon EGF stimulation; which increases transcriptional activity and stability, and is blocked by calmodulin.
In response to TGF-beta, ubiquitinated by NEDD4L; which promotes its degradation.
Acetylated on Lys-19 by coactivators in response to TGF-beta signaling, which increases transcriptional activity. Isoform short: Acetylation increases DNA binding activity in vitro and enhances its association with target promoters in vivo. Acetylation in the nucleus by EP300 is enhanced by TGF-beta. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cytoplasmic and nuclear in the absence of TGF-beta. On TGF-beta stimulation, migrates to the nucleus when complexed with SMAD4. On dephosphorylation by phosphatase PPM1A, released from the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, and exported out of the nucleus by interaction with RANBP1. - Information by UniProt
