DescriptionAnti-BICD2 Antibody
Alternate Names
  • Bicaudal D homolog 2
  • Bic-D 2
  • BICD2
Background InformationBICD2 is the second human homolog discovered to the Drosophila Bicaudal-D protein that forms part of the cytoskeleton and mediates the correct sorting of mRNAs for oocyte- and axis-determining factors during oogenesis. Similar to the highly homologous protein BICD1, BICD2 can bind to dynein-dynactin complex, primarily through the dynamitin subunit of dynactin. The C-terminus of BICD2 targets the protein to the Golgi complex while the N-terminal domain of BICD2 co-immunoprecipitates with cytoplasmic dynein, suggesting BICD2 plays a role in the dynein-dynactin interaction on the surface of membranous organelles. Mice engineered to overexpress the BICD2 amino terminal domain in neurons developed amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-like features such as Golgi fragmentation, neurofilament swelling in proximal axons, etc., suggesting that impaired dynein/dynactin function may explain some of the pathological features observed in ALS patients.

UniProt Number
Molecular Weight~100 kDa observed. Uniprot describes two isoforms at ~94 kDa and ~97 kDa. The calculated molecular weight is 94 kDa, however BICD2 has been shown as a ~100 kDa band in western blots. (Daniele, T., et al. (2011). Traffic. 12(7):902-911.) An uncharacterized band may appear at ~35 kDa in some lysates.
