Monoclonal Antibodies Against HRS-2
The Technology: Dr. Andrew Bean at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHSC-H) has developed a monoclonal antibody to Hrs-2. Hrs-2 is a protein that plays a role in the formation and dissolution of protein complexes during vesicular formation. Cellular expression of hrs-2 can be determined via the monoclonal hrs-2 antibody. This antibody will be useful in determining how hrs-2 is regulated and tracking hrs-2 interaction during vesicular trafficking.
