Calretinin is a vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein
Guinea pig monoclonal recombinant IgG
Cat. No.: 214 308
Amount: 50 µg
Price: $415.00
Cat. No. 214 308 50 µg purified recombinant IgG, lyophilized. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use.
Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze!

Remarks

This antibody is a chimeric antibody based on the monoclonal mouse antibody clone 37C9. The constant regions of the heavy and light chains have been replaced by guinea pig specific sequences. Therefore, the antibody can be used with standard anti-guinea pig secondary reagents. The antibody has been expressed in mammalian cells.

Background

Two isoforms of the vitamin D-dependent Ca-binding proteins have been described so far: Calretinin, also referred to as calbindin D29k, calbindin 2, CALB 2, CAL 2, and CAB 29, and calbindin D28k. These proteins are expressed in cells that have to handle a high calcium influx such as brain, bone, teeth, inner ear and others. Calbindins are believed to regulate cellular activity by suppressing or buffering intracellur calcium.
