CD2AP Antibody / Cytoskeletal Adapter Protein Antibody recognizes CD2-associated protein (CD2AP), an adaptor molecule that coordinates cytoskeletal organization, membrane trafficking, and intracellular signaling through multiple protein-protein interaction domains. Originally identified as a binding partner of the T-cell surface receptor CD2, CD2AP is now recognized as a multifunctional scaffold that links membrane proteins to the actin cytoskeleton and regulates signaling pathways controlling cell adhesion, migration, endocytosis, and cytoskeletal dynamics. Because of these diverse functions, CD2AP Antibody / Cytoskeletal Adapter Protein Antibody is widely used to investigate immune signaling, kidney biology, epithelial organization, and receptor trafficking.
CD2AP contains three SH3 domains that mediate interactions with numerous signaling and cytoskeletal proteins, allowing it to assemble multiprotein complexes at the plasma membrane. In podocytes of the renal glomerulus, CD2AP is an essential component of the slit diaphragm, where it stabilizes interactions between nephrin, actin filaments, and associated signaling proteins to preserve the integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier. CD2AP also participates in growth factor receptor internalization, vesicle trafficking, and regulation of actin remodeling, enabling cells to coordinate membrane dynamics with changes in morphology and motility.
Altered CD2AP expression or function has been linked to several human diseases, including focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, chronic kidney disease, neurodegenerative disorders, and multiple cancers. Genetic variants affecting CD2AP have also been associated with increased susceptibility to late-onset Alzheimer's disease, highlighting its broader importance in neuronal maintenance and intracellular trafficking. Because CD2AP integrates signaling, cytoskeletal organization, and membrane transport, it has become an important biomarker for studies of renal physiology, immune cell activation, neurobiology, and mechanisms regulating cell architecture.
NSJ Bioreagents' CD2AP Antibody / Cytoskeletal Adapter Protein Antibody supports investigations into cytoskeletal organization, receptor endocytosis, cell adhesion, podocyte biology, intracellular signaling, immune function, and neurodegenerative disease. Reliable detection of CD2AP enables researchers to study one of the central adaptor proteins that coordinates communication between membrane receptors and the actin cytoskeleton.

Optimal dilution of the CD2AP Antibody / Cytoskeletal Adapter Protein Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A recombinant human protein corresponding to amino acids K253-K337 was used as the immunogen for the CD2AP antibody.
After reconstitution, the CD2AP antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
