Antibody Cross Reactivity: Does not cross-react with TRAK1.

Scientific Background: TRAK2, a member of the TRAK family of adaptor proteins, links mitochondria to microtubule based motors. Localized in dendrites, it is specifically required for dendritic development as it reacts with dynein and dynactin. TRAK2 interferes with kinesin-1 binding and axonal transport (1). It has been shown to interact with Kir2.1 and GABA-R Beta2 (2, 3).
