Anti-FERM domain containing kindlin 2 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the FERMT2 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 680 amino acid residues and a mass of 77.9 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 3 different isoforms for this protein. It is ubiquitously expressed across many tissue types. A member of the Kindlin protein family, it is reported to be a scaffolding protein that enhances integrin activation mediated by TLN1 and/or TLN2, but activates integrins only weakly by itself. Other names for this target antigen include KIND2 and MIG2. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species.
