Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected Cav3.2 in A549 cells.Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected Cav3.2 in Human cerebral cortex tissue sections.Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user.
• Target description: Voltage-dependent T-type calcium channel subunit alpha-1H (UniProt: O95180; also known as Low-voltage-activated calcium channel alpha1 3.2 subunit, Voltage-gated calcium channel subunit alpha Cav3.2) is encoded by the CACNA1H gene (Gene ID: 8912) in human. Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels are classified on the basis of their biophysical and pharmacological properties. The L, N, P, Q, and R-type channels belong to a family of high-voltage activated channels, whereas T-type channels are classified as low-voltage activated channels. T-type channels serve pacemaking functions in both central neurons and in cardiac nodal cells and support calcium signaling in secretory cells and vascular smooth muscle. Cav3.2 is a multi-pass, T-type low voltage-activated channel that is widely expressed throughout the central nervous system and plays a vital role in neuronal excitability and various physiological functions. In the brain, it is most abundant in the amygdala, caudate nucleus, and putamen. It is pr
• Physical form: Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.
• Reconstitution: 300 µg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
• Storage and Stability: Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
