Anti-SMD2 antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target SMD2 is a known alias name of the protein small nuclear ribonucleoprotein D2 polypeptide, encoded by the SNRPD2 gene in humans. This 118-amino acid residue protein is reported to play a role in pre-mRNA splicing as a core component of the spliceosomal U1, U2, U4 and U5 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), the building blocks of the spliceosome. It is localized to the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell. It is reported to be widely expressed in many tissue types. Other synonyms for SMD2 include SNRPD1 and Sm-D2. Western Blot is a widely used application for the SMD2 antibodies listed below. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
