Annexin A2 (ANXA2), also known as Annexin II and Lipocortin II (LPC2), is a 38.6 kDa member of the Annexin family of proteins. The Annexins are a family of Calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that are preferentially located on the cytosolic face of the plasma membrane. The Annexin’s have a molecular weight of approximately 35‑40 kDa and consist of a unique amino terminal domain followed by a homologous C-terminal core domain containing the calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding sites. The C-terminal domain is comprised of four 60‑70 amino acid (aa) repeats, known as annexin repeats or an endonexin fold (Annexin A6 contains 8 annexin repeats). The four annexin repeats form a highly alpha -helical, tightly packed disc known as the annexin domain, which binds to phospholipids in the membrane in a calcium-dependent manner. Members of the annexin family play a role in cytoskeletal interactions, phospholipase inhibition, regulation of cellular growth, and intracellular signal transduction pathways. Annexin A2 was identified as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2 activity. Annexin A2 also functions as an autocrine factor to enhance osteoclast formation and bone resorption and is a major cellular substrate of the tyrosine kinase encoded by the SRC oncogene. Human Annexin A2 shares 97% identity with mouse and rat Annexin A2.

Scientific Data Images for Human/Mouse/Rat Annexin A2 Antibody
Detection of Human/Mouse/Rat Annexin A2 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of A431 human epithelial carcinoma cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, and L6 rat myoblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Annexin A2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3928) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for Annexin A2 at approximately 39 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted using Immunoblot Buffer Group 2.Detection of Human and Mouse Annexin A2 by Simple WesternTM.
Simple Western shows lysates of Exosome Standards (HT‑29) (NBP3-11685) and COLO 205 human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line, loaded at 0.5 mg/ml. A specific band was detected for Annexin A2 at approximately 44 kDa (as indicated) using 100 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Annexin A2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3928). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230kDa separation system.Annexin A2 in Human Liver.
Annexin A2 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of normal human liver using Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Annexin A2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3928) at 3 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # CTS013). Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to plasma membranes of hepatocytes.

Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma parental cell line and Annexin A2 knockout HeLa cell line (KO). PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Annexin A2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3928) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for Annexin A2 at approximately 37 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HeLa cell line, but is not detectable in knockout HeLa cell line. GAPDH (Catalog # AF5718) is shown as a loading control. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.Detection of Mouse Annexin A2 by Western Blot
MIPs induce Src-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation and translocation of A2 to the cell surface. A ARPE-19 cells were incubated for 18 h with basic medium (Basic), activated THP-1 cell conditioned medium (CM), or THP-1 CM with RPE CM with or without addition of anti-human MIP-1 alpha / beta or non-immune IgG. Cell surface A2 (sA2) was labeled using membrane impermeable biotinylation and captured with NeutrAvidin agarose beads. Labeled cell surface proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE and cell surface (sA2) and total cell lysate A2 (tA2) probed by immunoblot with mouse (BD #610069) or rabbit (Cell Signaling #8235) anti-A2 IgG. b Pixel density of immunoblotted bands from 3-5 separate experiments were quantified and normalized to the unstimulated sample (Basic). c ARPE-19 cells were incubated with basic media with or without recombinant human MIP-1 alpha / beta (MIPs, 200 ng/ml each), and with or without the Src kinase inhibitor PP2 or its control PP3 (10 µM, 3 h). Cell lysates were probed for pY23-A2, tA2, pY416 activated Src, total Src (tSrc), and GAPDH, as a loading control. d Pixel density of immunoblotted bands from 3-6 separate experiments were quantified and normalized to the unstimulated sample (Basic). e ARPE-19 cells were incubated with or without recombinant human MIP-1 alpha / beta (MIPs, 200 ng/ml each) in the presence or absence of PP2 or PP3, as in (c). f Pixel density of immunoblotted bands from 3–7 separate experiments were quantified and normalized to the unstimulated sample (Basic). Shown for (b, d, f) are mean values ± SE, with p values determined by unpaired one-way ANOVA and the post hoc Tukey test. Source data for (b, d, and f) are provided as a Source File.
