Immunogen Recombinant protein corresponding to AA 1921 to 2212 from rat Ca2+ channel P/Q-type α-1A (Cav2.1) (UniProt Id: P54282)
Reactivity Reacts with: rat (P54282), mouse (P97445).
Other species not tested yet.
Specificity K.O. validated PubMed: 27537483
Remarks

WB: Due to its large size, this antibody requires special gel-electrophoresis and Western blot protocols for visualization by immunoblotting. Excellent results can be obtained with the 4-12% TRIS-glycine gradient gels of anamed or NuPage TRIS-acetate gels from Invitrogen. Ca2+ channel P/Q-type alpha-1A aggregates after boiling, making it necessary to run SDS-PAGE with non-boiled samples.
ExM: This antibody has been successfully used for the magnified analysis of the proteome (MAP) expansion microscopy method (MAP; Ku et al. 2016. Nature Biotechnology 34:973-981)

Background

Voltage gated calcium channels (VGCCs), also referred to as voltage sensitive calcium channels (VSCCs), are present in most excitable cells. They mediate the influx of Ca2+ ions into the cell and trigger the release of neurotransmitters or hormons but are also involved in other calcium dependent processes like metabolism, cell proliferation and cell death.
VGCCs are composed of four subunits (α-1, α-2, β and δ) in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The α-1A isoform occurs in VGCCs of the P/Q-type while isoform α-1B is found in the N-type. Both belong to the high voltage activated group (hva).
