Description
Product Characteristics: PLEKHM2 Antibody: PLEKHM2, also known as SKIP, is a member of the M family of Pleckstrin homology domain-containing proteins. While little is known of PLEKHM2, a recent study examining differential gene expression in human hematopoietic stem cells has shown it to be specifically expressed in stem cells, suggesting that PLEKHM2 may play a role in erythroid commitment and development. Other studies have shown that PLEKHM2 is required for interaction with the Salmonella virulence factor SifA for Salmonella pathogenesis, suggesting that PLEKHM2 has cellular roles other than in the developing embryo.
Target Information: May play a role in the regulation of conventional kinesin activity. Required for maintenance of the Golgi apparatus organization. May play a role in membrane tubulation (By similarity)
