SYNE2 Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

SYNE2: a nuclear transmembrane protein involved in the maintenance of nuclear organization and structural integrity. The largest part of the protein is cytoplasmic, while its C-terminal part is associated with the nuclear envelope, most probably the outer nuclear membrane. Remains associated with the nuclear envelope during its breakdown in mitotic cells. Probable anchoring protein which theters the nucleus to the cytoskeleton. Connects nuclei to the cytoskeleton by interacting with the nuclear envelope and with F-actin in the cytoplasm. Nine alternatively spliced isoforms have been described.
