The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the antizyme inhibitor family, which plays a role in cell growth and proliferation by maintaining polyamine homeostasis within the cell. Antizyme inhibitors are homologs of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC, the key enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis) that have lost the ability to decarboxylase ornithine; however, retain the ability to bind to antizymes. Antizymes negatively regulate intracellular polyamine levels by binding to ODC and targeting it for degradation, as well as by inhibiting polyamine uptake. Antizyme inhibitors function as positive regulators of polyamine levels by sequestering antizymes and neutralizing their effect. This gene encodes antizyme inhibitor 2, the second member of this gene family. Like antizyme inhibitor 1, antizyme inhibitor 2 interacts with all 3 antizymes and stimulates ODC activity and polyamine uptake. However, unlike antizyme inhibitor 1, which is ubiquitously expressed and localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm, antizyme inhibitor 2 is predominantly expressed in the brain and testis and localized in the endoplasmic reticulum-golgi intermediate compartment. Recent studies indicate that antizyme inhibitor 2 is also expressed in specific cell types in ovaries, adrenal glands and pancreas, and in mast cells. The exact function of this gene is not known, however, available data suggest its role in cell growth, spermiogenesis, vesicular trafficking and secretion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eImmunogen\u003c\/b\u003e: E.coli-derived human AZIN2 recombinant protein (Position: M1-L448).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClonality\u003c\/b\u003e: Polyclonal\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e: Each vial contains 4mg Trehalose, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePurification\u003c\/b\u003e: Immunogen affinity purified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReconstitution\u003c\/b\u003e: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug\/ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReference\u003c\/b\u003e: 1.
