Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to the amino terminus of human LOXL2 protein.

Background

Lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) is a secreted copper-dependent amine oxidase and a member of the lysyl oxidase family (1). It primarily catalyzes the oxidation of lysine (or hydroxylysine) residues in collagen and elastin to form peptidyl aldehyde derivatives (1). These modifications are required for further cross-linking of target proteins to enhance extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness. LOXL2 has been associated with progression and metastases of many cancer types, including breast cancer and fibrotic disease, all through active remodeling of the ECM (2-5). Additionally, within the cell, LOXL2 has been shown to play a role in EMT, cell polarity, and transcriptional repression (6-8). LOXL2 has become an attractive target for therapeutic intervention in cancer treating, blocking metastasis, and halting fibrosis (9-10).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
