A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of ECT2 antibody, Alternative Names: ECT2 control peptide, ECT2 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-ECT2 Blocking Peptide, Epithelial Cell Transforming Sequence 2 Oncogene Blocking Peptide, FLJ10461 Blocking Peptide, MGC138291 Blocking Peptide, ECT2, ECT-2, ECT 2, ECT-2 Blocking Peptide, ECT 2 Blocking Peptide
ECT2 is a transforming protein that is related to Rho-specific exchange factors and yeast cell cycle regulators. The expression of ECT2 is elevated with the onset of DNA synthesis and remains elevated during G2 and M phases. In situ hybridization analysis showed that expression is at a high level in cells undergoing mitosis in regenerating liver. Thus, this protein is expressed in a cell cycle-dependent manner during liver regeneration, and is thought to have an important role in the regulation of cytokinesis.
