HEAT repeat-containing protein 2 (HEATR2) is localized to the cytoplasm and the gene encoding it is present on human chromosome 7.
Synonyms: Anti-CILD18; Anti-FLJ20397; Anti-FLJ25564; Anti-FLJ31671; Anti-FLJ39381; Anti-HEATR2
Storage: -20C
Application: All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

Biochem Physiol Actions: HEAT repeat-containing protein 2 (HEATR2) acts as a scaffold and this helps in steadying the connections between dynein subunits during the cytoplasmic pre-assembly stages. It may take part in the assembly and transport of dynein arms. Mutations in the gene encoding HEATR2 has been shown to be associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia.
