AIM2 Antibody (3C4G11) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Interferon-inducible protein AIM2 (Absent in melanoma 2) in mouse, rat, and human samples through various applications including western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), flow cytometry (FCM), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). AIM2 is a 343 amino acid protein belonging to the HIN-200 family and is primarily localized in the nucleus, where AIM2 plays a crucial role in cellular responses to DNA damage and pathogen detection. AIM2 contains one DAPIN domain and one HIN-200 domain; the DAPIN domain facilitates protein-protein interactions, while the HIN-200 domain is essential for direct DNA binding. This interaction leads to the activation of Caspase-1, a key player in the inflammatory response. AIM2 functions as a tumor suppressor by repressing NFκB transcriptional activity, and AIM2 expression is notably high in tissues such as the small intestine, testis, peripheral blood leukocytes, and spleen. Defects in AIM2 have been implicated in the development of microsatellite unstable colon cancers, highlighting AIM2′s critical role in maintaining genomic stability and immune responses. Anti-AIM2 antibody (3C4G11) is an invaluable tool for researchers studying the mechanisms of cancer and inflammation, providing insights into AIM2′s function and potential as a therapeutic target.
