Human/Mouse HO-2/HMOX2 Antibody Summary

Species Reactivity

Human, Mouse

Specificity

Detects human and mouse HO‑2/HMOX2 in Western blots. Endogenous rat HO-2 is detectable but has a higher background. In Western blots, no cross-reactivity with recombinant human HO-1/HMOX1 is observed.

Source

Monoclonal Mouse IgG_2A Clone # 322913

Purification

Protein A or G purified from hybridoma culture supernatant

Immunogen

E. coli-derived recombinant human HO‑2/HMOX2
Met1-Met316
Accession # P30519

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS with Trehalose. *Small pack size (SP) is supplied either lyophilized or as a 0.2 µm filtered solution in PBS.

Detection of Human and Mouse HO‑2/HMOX2 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, A549 human lung carcinoma cell line, and DA3 mouse myeloma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse HO-2/HMOX2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB3170) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). For additional reference, recombinant human HO-1 and HO-2 (5 ng/lane) were included. A specific band for HO-2/HMOX2 was detected at approximately 36 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 2.

Background: HO-2/HMOX2

Heme Oxygenase 2 (HO-2), also known as HMOX2, is a 36 kDa microsomal enzyme required for the metabolism of heme to biliverdin. Heme Oxygenase occurs as 2 isozymes, the constitutively expressed Heme Oxygenase-2(HO-2/HMOX2) and the inducible Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1/HMOX1). HO-1 expression is induced by heme and other non-heme compounds. Human HO-2 shares 42% amino acid sequence identity with human HO-1 and 89% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat HO-2.
