Recombinant Human PLIN2, T7 tagged

• Cat.No.: PLIN2-201H
• Product Overview: PLIN2, 1-437aa, Human, T7 tag, E.coli

Specification

• Description: PLIN2 belongs to the perilipin family, members of which coat intracellular lipid storage droplets. This protein is associated with the lipid globule surface membrane material, and maybe involved in development and maintenance of adipose tissue. However, it is not restricted to adipocytes as previously thought, but is found in a wide range of cultured cell lines, including fibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells, and tissues, such as lactating mammary gland, adrenal cortex, Sertoli and Leydig cells, and hepatocytes in alcoholic liver cirrhosis, suggesting that it may serve as a marker of lipid accumulation in diverse cell types and diseases. Recombinant human PLIN2, fused to T7-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli.

Q&As

How are the interactions between PLIN2 and other proteins regulated?

The interaction between PLIN2 and other proteins is regulated by the formation of complexes or the regulation of signal transduction pathways. These interactions can be influenced by a variety of factors, such as nutrients, hormones, and inflammatory factors.

What is the relationship between PLIN2 and cardiovascular disease?

Some studies have suggested that the expression level of PLIN2 may be associated with the occurrence and progression of cardiovascular disease. High levels of PLIN2 may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, myocardial hypertrophy, and heart failure.

Can the function of PLIN2 be studied by gene knockout or knockdown techniques?

The function of PLIN2 can be studied through gene knockout or knockdown techniques, such as using techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 or RNAi. These techniques can create cellular models of PLIN2 deletion or reduction to observe its effects on fat storage and breakdown, among other things.

What is the role of PLIN2 in obesity and diabetes?

PLIN2 plays an important role in obesity and diabetes. It may influence the development of obesity and diabetes by regulating adipocyte differentiation, insulin sensitivity, and lipid metabolism.

How can the function of PLIN2 be studied by overexpression techniques?

PLIN2 can be studied through overexpression techniques, such as the use of gene transduction or viral transduction. These techniques can increase the expression level of PLIN2 to observe its effects on fat storage and breakdown, among other things.

How does the expression level of PLIN2 relate to the occurrence and progression of the disease?

Some studies have shown that PLIN2 expression levels may be associated with obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, among others. High levels of PLIN2 may be associated with increased susceptibility to disease, while low levels of PLIN2 may be associated with decreased susceptibility to disease.
