IGF2BP2 belongs to the family of Insulin-like growth factor-II mRNA binding proteins (IMP1, IMP2, and IMP3). Members in this family contain four hnRNP K homology (KH) domains and two RNA recognition motifs (RRM) domains. They are involved in the RNA cytoplasmic localization, stability, and translation. Recent studies suggest that IGF2BP2 and IGF2BP1 bind to target mRNAs via all four KH domains. Studies showed that the expression of IGF2BP2 is associated with liposarcoma, liver cancer, and endometrial adenocarcinomas. Genome-wide association studies have also identified IGF2BP2 as one of the several factors for developing type 2 diabetes.

Antigen Details
- Structure
- Canonical sequence contains 599 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 66.1 kD. Five isoforms with a molecular weight ranging from 54.7 kD to 61.8 kD.
- Distribution
-
Nucleus, cytoplasm, and the cytoskeleton. It is expressed in oocytes, granulosa cells, Leydig cells, spermatogonia, but is expressed weaker in the lymph nodes, lungs, liver, kidney, heart muscles, spleen, and testis.
- Function
- IGF2BP2 binds to the 5' UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNA and regulates IGF2 translation. It also modulates the cytoplasmic trafficking, turnover, and translation of various target mRNAs.
- Interaction
- Interacts with HNRPD, IGF2BP1, IGF2BP3, ELAVL1, DHX9, and HNRNPU.
