目标描述

Mitofusin-2 (UniProt: O95140; also known as Transmembrane GTPase MFN2) is encoded by the MFN2 (also known as CPRP1, KIAA0214) gene (Gene ID: 9927) in human. Mitofusin-1 and 2 are highly homologous mitochondrial proteins that display ~80% similarity in humans. Mitofusin-2 is a multi-pass membrane protein that serves as a mitochondrial outer membrane GTPase to mediate mitochondrial clustering and fusion. It is ubiquitously expressed at low level, but higher expression is observed in heart and kidney. It consists of a large, cytoplasmic N-terminal GTPase domain, followed by a spacer, a first coiled-coil heptad-repeat (HR1) domain, a spacer, two transmembrane domains that cross the outer mitochondrial membrane, a spacer and a second, C-terminal heptad-repeat domain (HR2). Between HR1 and transmembrane domains, it contains a proline-rich domain that participates in protein protein interactions. Mitofusin-2 plays a key role in mitochondrial metabolism and is involved in mitochondrial fusion, trafficking, turnover, contacts with other organelles, and in the clearance of damaged mitochondria via selective mitophagy. Mitofusin-2 is phosphorylated by PINK1 and the phosphorylated form functions as a receptor for parkin that mediates its ubiquitination, a signal to mark damaged mitochondria. It is also required in the control of unfolded protein response upon endoplasmic reticulum stress. Mitofusion-2 knockout cells display mitochondrial spheres or ovals of different sizes and are several folds larger in diameter than wild-type. Mutations in MFN2 gene are known to cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease that is characterized by signs of axonal degeneration and progressive distal muscle weakness and atrophy. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
