EDEM2 Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul DNA Synthesis ITGA2 encodes the alpha subunit

ITGA2 encodes the alpha subunit of a transmembrane receptor for collagens and related proteins

Several related pseudogenes have also been identified

transcription activation and apoptosis

and it apparently protects neurons against oxidative stress and cell death

Mutations in this gene may be associated with type 2 diabetes in human patients

EDEM2 Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul DNA Synthesis ITGA2 encodes the alpha subunitIn the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), misfolded proteins are retrotranslocated to the cytosol and degraded by the proteasome in a process known as ER associated degradation (ERAD). EDEM2 belongs to a family of proteins involved in ERAD of glycoproteins.
