Anti-KPNA2 (clone W24V188) Recombinant Antibody Coupled Liposome (VS-1024-FY189)
CAT#: VS-1024-FY189
The anti-KPNA2 antibody-conjugated liposome aims to inhibit nuclear transport mechanisms critical for melanoma cell survival. KPNA2 is involved in the nuclear import of numerous proteins, including those that promote tumor growth. By disrupting this pathway, the liposome can potentially enhance the therapeutic efficacy against melanoma. Preliminary findings suggest that this approach may also help in reversing drug resistance.

- Antibody Description
- This specially designed recombinant rat monoclonal antibody targets the KPNA2 protein, known for its role in nucleocytoplasmic transport. KPNA2 is of particular interest in numerous biological processes, including signal transduction and cell proliferation. The ability of this antibody to bind specifically to KPNA2 enhances its utility in cancer research, particularly in understanding how abnormal transport mechanisms contribute to tumor progression.

- Introduction
- The import of proteins into the nucleus is a process that involves at least 2 steps. The first is an energy-independent docking of the protein to the nuclear envelope and the second is an energy-dependent translocation through the nuclear pore complex. Imported proteins require a nuclear localization sequence (NLS) which generally consists of a short region of basic amino acids or 2 such regions spaced about 10 amino acids apart. Proteins involved in the first step of nuclear import have been identified in different systems. These include the Xenopus protein importin and its yeast homolog, SRP1 (a suppressor of certain temperature-sensitive mutations of RNA polymerase I in Saccharomyces cerevisiae), which bind to the NLS. KPNA2 protein interacts with the NLSs of DNA helicase Q1 and SV40 T antigen and may be involved in the nuclear transport of proteins. KPNA2 also may play a role in V(D)J recombination.

- Function
- Functions in nuclear protein import as an adapter protein for nuclear receptor KPNB1 (PubMed:28991411, 32130408, 7604027, 7754385).
Binds specifically and directly to substrates containing either a simple or bipartite NLS motif (PubMed:28991411, 32130408, 7604027, 7754385).
Docking of the importin/substrate complex to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is mediated by KPNB1 through binding to nucleoporin FxFG repeats and the complex is subsequently translocated through the pore by an energy requiring, Ran-dependent mechanism.
