IHC, WB. 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: |
3786 |
Uniprot ID: |
KCNQ3_HUMAN |
Immunogen Region: |
750-800 aa |
Specificity: |
Specific for KCNQ3. |
Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from aa region 750-800 of human KCNQ3 (Kv7.3) conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in rat and mouse. |
Post Translational Modifications | KCNQ2/KCNQ3 are ubiquitinated by NEDD4L. Ubiquitination leads to protein degradation (Probable). 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. |
