SKOR2 Polyclonal Antibody

The sloan kettering virus (Ski) family of nuclear oncoproteins act as transcriptional regulators of TGF-尾 by interacting directly with SMAD proteins. Fussel-18 (functional Smad-suppressing element on chromosome 18), also known as SKOR2 (Ski family transcriptional corepressor 2), LBX1 corepressor 1-like protein, ladybird homeobox corepressor 1-like protein or CORL2, is a 1,001 amino acid protein that belongs to the Ski family. Localizing to nucleus as well as cytoplasm, Fussel-18 is expressed in cerebellum, spinal cord and testis. Fussel-18 acts as an antagonist to TGF-尾 in the nervous system, possibly by functioning as a transcriptional repressor of SMAD2 and SMAD3. Existing as two alternatively spliced isoforms, the gene encoding Fussel-18 maps to human chromosome 18q21.1 and mouse chromosome 18 E3.
