Western Blot analysis of immunized recombinant protein using CAPN7 antibody (10R-1321)
Specifications
Host
Mouse
Clone
2107C3a
Isotype
IgG1
Method of Purification
CAPN7 antibody was purified using protein G column chromatography from culture supernatant of hybridoma
cultured in a medium containing bovine IgG-depleted
(approximately 95%) fetal bovine serum.
Form & Buffer
CAPN7 antibody in PBS (3.0 mM KCl, 1.5 mM KH2 PO4 , 140 mM NaCl, 8.0 mM Na2 HPO4 (pH 7.4)) containing 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 0.05% sodium azide (NaN3 ).
Store at 2-8 deg C for up to one year. We recommend long term storage at -20 deg C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Biohazard Information
This antibody solution contains sodium azide (NaN )
as a preservative. There is a potential hazard that
NaN reacts with copper or lead to produce an explosive
compound. For safe disposal, the vial has to
be washed thoroughly with water. It is strongly adv
General Information
Biological Significance
Calpains are ubiquitous, well-conserved family of calcium-dependent, cysteine proteases. The calpain proteins are heterodimers consisting of an invariant small subunit and variable large subunits. The large subunit possesses a cysteine protease domain, and both subunits possess calcium-binding domains. Calpains have been implicated in neurodegenerative processes, as their activation can be triggered by calcium influx and oxidative stress. The function of the protein encoded by this gene is not known. An orthologue has been found in mouse but it seems to diverge from other family members. The mouse orthologue is thought to be calcium independent with protease activity.
