MARS2 Antibody (7C3): sc-293382

MARS2 Antibody (7C3) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a kappa light chain antibody that detects MARS2 protein of human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-MARS2 antibody (7C3) is available as a non-conjugated format. MARS2, also known as methionyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial, is a crucial 593 amino acid protein located in the mitochondrial matrix, where MARS2 plays a vital role in protein synthesis by catalyzing the attachment of methionine to its corresponding tRNA. This process is essential for the initiation of protein translation, making MARS2 critical for mitochondrial function and overall cellular health. The gene encoding MARS2 is situated on human chromosome 2q33.1, which is significant as this chromosome is the second largest in the human genome and harbors numerous genes associated with various genetic disorders. Mutations in MARS2 can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction, which has been implicated in a range of diseases, highlighting the importance of studying MARS2 for understanding mitochondrial pathologies. MARS2 monoclonal antibody (7C3) is an invaluable tool for researchers investigating the role of mitochondrial proteins in health and disease.
