BEST2 Polyclonal Antibody Sizes: 50μL, 100μL Catalogue Numbers: RA22378-50, RA22378-100 Citations, Manuals and MSDS Available upon request. Background: bestrophin 2 (BEST2) Homo sapiens This gene is a member of the bestrophin gene family of anion channels. Bestrophin genes share a similar gene structure with highly conserved exon-intron boundaries, but with distinct 3' ends. Bestrophins are transmembrane proteins that contain a homologous region rich in aromatic residues, including an invariant arg-phe-pro motif. Mutation in one of the family members (bestrophin 1) is associated with vitelliform macular dystrophy. The bestrophin 2 gene is mainly expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium and colon.
