    HMG-2 Antibody (68.32) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects HMG-2 in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). HMG-2, a member of the high mobility group (HMG) protein family, plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression by binding to DNA and inducing structural changes that facilitate transcription. HMG-2 is primarily located in the nucleus, where anti-HMG-2 antibody (68.32) can detect interactions with chromatin and influences on DNA architecture, promoting essential processes such as transcriptional activation. The ability of HMG-2 to bend and unwind DNA is vital for the recruitment of transcription factors and the assembly of the transcriptional machinery, thereby impacting cellular responses to various stimuli. Additionally, HMG-2 undergoes post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, which can enhance transcriptional activity and further regulate gene expression. With a significant role in chromatin dynamics and gene regulation, HMG-2 monoclonal antibody (68.32) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying gene expression and chromatin structure in various biological contexts.

    Will this anti-HMGB2 antibody cross react with HMGB1 ?

    Asked by: YKam
    Thank you for your question. This monoclonal antibody is recommended to specifically detect HMG-2 (also designated HMGB2). However, we have not yet experimentally confirmed that it does not cross-react with HMG-1 (HMGB1). We do offer an alternative monoclonal antibody, HMG-2 Antibody (D-3): sc-271689, which based on sequence analysis of the a short peptide antigen, is not expected to cross-react with HMG-1.

    For Western Blot, is it recommended to use denatured or non-denatured conditions with HMG-2 (68.32): sc-101067 antibody?

    Asked by: Professor Griffin
    Thank you for your question. We recommend this antibody for use in denatured Western Blot conditions. It has not been validated for use in non-denatured conditions. Please contact our Technical Service Department for further details or inquiries.
