Application

Immunohistichemistry:
Tested on whole brain (SCN; peak staining at CT/ZT12). Optimium working dilutions need to be determined by end used.

Detect mPER1 (residues 6-21) using this Anti-mPER1 (residues 6-21) Antibody validated for use in WB.

General description

This gene is a member of the Period family of genes and is expressed in a circadian pattern in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the primary circadian pacemaker in the mammalian brain. Genes in this family encode components of the circadian rhythms of locomotor activity, metabolism, and behavior. Circadian expression in the suprachiasmatic nucleus continues in constant darkness, and a shift in the light/dark cycle evokes a proportional shift of gene expression in the suprachiasmatic nucleus. The specific function of this gene is not yet known. Alternative splicing has been observed in this gene; however, these variants have not been fully described.
