Application

Anti-SLC26A5 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 2.5µg/ml and for immunohistochemistry of paraffin-embedded tissue sections at a concentration of 4-8µg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SLC26A5 (Prestin), a member of SLC26 family, is an anion transporter that functions at microsecond rates. It is expressed at the basolateral membrane of cochlear outer hair cells and modulates the sensitivity of mammalian hearing. Mutations in the gene encoding for prestin result in neurosensory deafness.
