| Note: | STRICTLY FOR FURTHER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
| Short Description : | Rabbit polyclonal antibody anti-CALHM2 (160-210 aa) is suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry and Western Blot research applications. |
| Clonality : | Polyclonal |
| Conjugation: | Unconjugated |
| Isotype: | IgG |
| Formulation: | Lyophilised |
| Purification: | IgG purified |
| Dilution Range: | IHC, WB (confirmed by recombinant protein). A dilution of 1:300 to 1:2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not tested in other applications. |
| Storage Instruction: | Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at-20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles. |
| Gene Symbol: | CALHM2 |
| Gene ID: | 51063 |
| Uniprot ID: | CAHM2_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: | 160-210 aa |
| Specificity: | Specific for CALHM2. |
| Immunogen: | A synthetic peptide from aa region 160-210 of human CALHM2 conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide shares 83% identity with rat and mouse sequences. |
| Function | Pore-forming subunit of Ca(2+) homeostasis modulator channels. Mediates ATP release from astrocytes and ATP-induced Ca(2+) influx in microglia thus regulating neuronal ATP and Ca(2+) homeostasis, synaptic transmission and neuroinflammatory response. May form intercellular gap junctions. The gating mechanism remains unknown. |
