Application Instructions
| Application Suggestion |
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Application Note | Specific for the ~72k ATF2 protein phosphorylated at Thr52. Immunolabeling of the ATF2 band is reduced by treatment of the cells with the PKC catalytic inhibitor Gö6850. * The dilutions indicate recommended starting dilutions and the optimal dilutions or concentrations should be determined by the scientist. |

Swiss-port # P15336 Human Cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-2 |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | ATF2 |
| Gene Full Name | activating transcription factor 2 |
| Background | The transcription factor ATF2 is a member of the ATF/CREB family of leucine zipper proteins. In response to stress stimuli, it activates a variety of gene targets that are involved in oncogenesis, and has been correlated with maintenance of a cancer cell phenotype (Vlahopoulos et al., 2008). Inhibiting ATF2 impedes melanoma development and elicits tumor suppressor function (Bhoumik et al., 2008). To act as a tumor suppressor, ATF2 must localize at the mitochondria, and phosphorylation at Thr52 by PKCε regulates this translocation (Lau et al., 2012). |

| Calculated MW | 55 kDa |
| PTM | Phosphorylation of Thr-69 by MAPK14 and MAPK11, and at Thr-71 by MAPK1/ERK2, MAPK3/ERK1, MAPK11, MAPK12 and MAPK14 in response to external stimulus like insulin causes increased transcriptional activity. Phosphorylated by PLK3 following hyperosmotic stress. Also phosphorylated and activated by JNK and CaMK4. ATM-mediated phosphorylation at Ser-490 and Ser-498 stimulates its function in DNA damage response. Phosphorylation at Ser-62, Thr-73 and Ser-121 activates its transcriptional activity. Phosphorylation at Thr-69 or Thr-71 enhances its histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity. |
