Polyclonal |
Conjugation: |
Unconjugated |
Isotype: |
IgG |
Formulation: |
Lyophilised |
Purification: |
IgG purified |
Dilution Range: |
IHC, WB (confirmed by recombinant protein). A dilution of 1:200 to 1:2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not yet 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: |
Kcnq3 |
Gene ID: |
110862 |
Uniprot ID: |
KCNQ3_MOUSE |
Immunogen Region: |
650-700 aa |
Specificity: |
Specific for KCNQ3. |
Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from aa region 650-700 of mouse KCNQ3 conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in rat. |
Post Translational Modifications | KCNQ2/KCNQ3 are ubiquitinated by NEDD4L. Ubiquitination leads to protein degradation. Degradation induced by NEDD4L is inhibited by USP36. |
Function | Pore-forming subunit of the voltage-gated potassium (Kv) M-channel which is responsible for the M-current, a key controller of neuronal excitability. M-channel is composed of pore-forming subunits KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 assembled as heterotetramers. The native M-current has a slowly activating and deactivating potassium conductance which plays a critical role in determining the subthreshold electrical excitability of neurons as well as the responsiveness to synaptic inputs. M-channel is selectively permeable in vitro to other cations besides potassium, in decreasing order of affinity K(+) > Rb(+) > Cs(+) > Na(+). M-channel association with SLC5A3/SMIT1 alters channel ion selectivity, increasing Na(+) and Cs(+) permeation relative to K(+). Suppressed by activation of M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. KCNQ3 also associates with KCNQ5 to form a functional channel in vitro and may also contribute to the M-current in brain. |
