General description

Calcineurin is a serine/threonine protein phosphatase involved in the mediation of signal tranduction in a wide variety of cellular responses. Calcineurin has been linked to Pmk1 MAP kinase and PI pathways, as well as to members of the small GTPase Rab/Ypt family and Type II myosin. Furthermore, calcineurin participates in the transduction of extracellular signals to the nucleus by dephosphorylation of members of the NFAT family of transcription factors. These linkages demonstrate calcineurin′s multifunctional capabilities in the regulation of calcium signaling.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide corresponding to Calcineurin.

Linkage

Replaces: AB1695

Physical form

Affinity purified

Purified rabbit polyclonal antibody in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH7.4) 150 mM NaCl with 40% gylerol. Contains no preservative.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in Mouse brain lysate.
Western Blot Analysis: 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected Calcineurin on 10 µg of mouse brain lysate.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes both the Aα and Aβ, the major catalytic subunit gene isoforms of calcineurin in most tissues; may also react with the testis form, Aγ. This antibody has very high sensitivity and specificity, which allow detection of calcineurin in tissues where expression is low, such as lymphoid tissue. Reacts with calcineurin of all mammalian species.

Storage and Stability

Store at -20°C for up to 12 months in undiluted aliquots; at this temperature the solution will
remain unfrozen.
