Background:

PGRMC2 (progesterone receptor membrane component 2), also known as DG6 (steroid receptor protein DG6) or PMBP (progesterone membrane-binding protein), is a single pass membrane protein belonging to the cytochrome b5 family (MAPR (membrane associated progesterone receptor) subfamily). Expressed in sperm, PGRMC2 is believed to function as a steroid receptor and may participate in the progesterone-dependent sperm acrosome reaction. PGRMC2 shares approximately 50% overall sequence identity with its close relative PGRMC1. The loss of the gene encoding PGRMC2 is associated with metastasis in uterine endocervical adenocarcinomas, implicating a potential role of PGRMC2 in the suppression of metastasis of endocervical adenocarcinomas.

Specificity:

PGRMC2 polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of PGRMC2 protein.
