Human DNM2 Recombinant Protein (N-His) (HW618012)

Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hardcopy of datasheet or the lot-specific COA.

Dynamin-2 (DNM2) is a ~98 kDa protein. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP and utilizes this energy to mediate vesicle scission at plasma membrane during endocytosis and filament remodeling at many actin structures during organization of the actin cytoskeleton. Plays an important role in vesicular trafficking processes, namely clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME), exocytic and clathrin-coated vesicle from the trans-Golgi network, and PDGF stimulated macropinocytosis. During vesicular trafficking process, associates to the membrane, through lipid binding, and self-assembles into ring-like structure through oligomerization to form a helical polymer around the vesicle membrane and leading to vesicle scission. Plays a role in organization of the actin cytoskeleton by mediating arrangement of stress fibers and actin bundles in podocytes. During organization of the actin cytoskeleton, self-assembles into ring-like structure that directly bundles actin filaments to form typical membrane tubules decorated with dynamin spiral polymers.
