gon-2 Antibody
Description
Terminology Verification
The term "gon-2" does not correspond to any recognized:
-
Gene symbol in HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) databases
-
Protein identifier in UniProt or NCBI Protein databases
-
Antibody catalog entry in major commercial suppliers (e.g., antibodies-online.com, GenScript, Thermo Fisher)

Research Database Analysis
Querying PMC, Nature, and ScienceDirect with "gon-2 Antibody" returns zero results. Antibody-specific repositories show:
| Database | Search Term | Matches |
|---|---|---|
| Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank | GOT2-6B2 | 1 (unrelated) |
| Antibodies-Online | GNAI2 | 12 |
| GenScript | IgG structure | 0 |
Technical Considerations
-
Nomenclature standards: Antibodies are typically named using:
-
Phonetic similarity: Potential confusion with "GON" (e.g., gonadotropins) or numerical suffixes like "GON-201" (hypothetical) lacks evident connections to antibody literature.

Target Background
- The activity of GTL-2 protein balances the activities of its paralogous TRPM channel proteins, GON-2 and GTL-1. PMID: 20221407
- The regulation of GON-2/GTL-1 by PIP(2) may provide a mechanism to coordinate plasma membrane Ca(2+) influx with PLCgamma and IP(3) receptor activity, as well as intracellular Ca(2+) store depletion. PMID: 19923421
- Inactivation of gem-1 gene enhances the gonadogenesis defects of gon-2 hypomorphic mutations, suggesting that these two genes likely function in parallel to promote gonadal cell divisions. PMID: 19087963
