Product Name :
Rabbit anti Human Calcium Channel
Description :
| Isotype IgG | Product Type Polyclonal Antibody | Units 100 µg | Host Rabbit | Species Reactivity Human | Application Western Blotting
Background :
Immunogen: Synthetic peptide derived from the rat alpha1B calcium channel conjugated to KLH
Source :
Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCCs) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. The isoform alpha-1b gives rise to N-type calcium currents. N-type calcium channels belong to the ‘high-voltage activated’ (hva) group and are blocked by omega-conotoxin-GVIA (omega-ctx-GVIA) and by omega-agatoxin-IIIA (omega-aga-IIIA). They are however insensitive to dihydropyridines (dhp), and omega-agatoxin-IVA (omega- aga-IVA). Calcium channels containing alpha-1b subunit may play a role in directed migration of immature neurons. Synonyms: Voltage-gated calcium channel subunit alpha Cav2.2, Calcium channel, L type, alpha-1 polypeptide isoform 5, Brain calcium channel III <
