Product Overview
Description | Recombinant Human BAG Family Molecular Chaperone Regulator 2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Asn211 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus. |
Accession | O95816 |
Synonym | BAG Family Molecular Chaperone Regulator 2; BAG-2; Bcl-2-Associated Athanogene 2; BAG2 |
Gene Background | BAG Family Molecular Chaperone Regulator 2 (BAG2) is a member of the Bag family whose members compete with Hip for binding to the Hsc70/Hsp70 ATPase domain and promote substrate release. BAG2 contains 1 BAG domain and is a important component of the HSC 70/CHIP chaperone-dependent ubiquitin ligase complex. In mammalian cells BAG1, BAG2, and BAG3 bind with high affinity to the ATPase domain of Hsc70 and inhibit its chaperone activity in a Hip-repressible manner. |

Target Details
Target Function | Co-chaperone for HSP70 and HSC70 chaperone proteins. Acts as a nucleotide-exchange factor (NEF) promoting the release of ADP from the HSP70 and HSC70 proteins thereby triggering client/substrate protein release. |

Gene Functions References
- the nucleotide exchange factor (NEF) Bag2 stimulates SV40 release from Hsc70, thereby enabling successful virus arrival at the cytosol, which leads to infection. Hsp105, another NEF of Hsc70, displays a function overlapping that of Bag2, underscoring the importance of this release reaction. PMID: 29769335
