Specificity
Recognizes a 1B subunit (both LMW and HMW forms) of voltage-gated calcium channel. Does not cross react with any other calcium channel antigens tested so far.
SPECIES REACTIVITIES: It is expected that the antibody will also work on mouse due to sequence homology (15/17). Other species have not been tested.

Immunogen
Purified peptide CNB1 from 851-867 of alpha 1B subunit of rat brain voltage-gated calcium channel (Accession Q02294; Westenbroek et al. 1992) containing N-terminal lysine and tyrosine, conjugated to KLH with gluteraldehyde (Harlow & Lane 1988).
Application
Detect Cav2.2 using this Anti-Cav2.2 Antibody validated for use in IC, IP & WB.
In preparing full-length protein samples for Western blot or immunoprecipitation, the procedures should be performed at 4°C, with the following protease inhibitor mixture: pepstatin A (1 μg/mL), leupeptin (1 μg/mL), aprotinin (1 μg/mL), Pefabloc SC (0.2 mM), benzamidine (0.1 mg/mL), and calpain inhibitors I and II (8 μg/mL each).
Immunoprecipitation
Immunocytochemistry. Recommend subsequent staining with a labeled second antibody.
Western blot: 1.5 to 3.0 μg/mL (1:100-1:200) using ECL
Dilutions should be made using a carrier protein such as BSA (1-3%)
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Physical form
Affinity purified immunoglobulin. Lyophilized from PBS, pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA and 0.05% sodium azide as a preservative. Reconstitute with 200 μL of sterile deionized water. Centrifuge antibody preparation before use (10,000 xg for 5 min).
Storage and Stability
Maintain lyophilized material at -20°C for up to 12 months after date of receipt. After reconstitution maintain at 2-8°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 2 weeks. For longer periods, it is recommended to add glycerol (ACS grade or better) at a ratio of 1:1 and store the antibody at -20°C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Analysis Note
Control
Included free of charge with the antibody is 40 μg of control antigen (lyophilized powder). The stock solution of the antigen can be made up using 100 μL of sterile deionized water. For negative control, preincubate 1 μg of peptide with 10 μg of antibody for one hour at room temperature. Optimal concentrations must be determined by the end user.

Cardiac L-type voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels are heteromultimeric polypeptide complexes of alpha(1)-, alpha(2)/delta-, and beta-subunits. The alpha(2)/delta-1-subunit possesses a stereoselective, high-affinity binding site for gabapentin, widely used to treat epilepsy and postherpetic neuralgic pain as well as sleep disorders.

The sigma-1 receptor is a 223 amino acids molecular chaperone with a single transmembrane domain. It is resident to eukaryotic mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membranes. By chaperone-mediated interactions with ion channels, G-protein coupled receptors and cell-signaling molecules, the sigma-1

GABAB receptors (GBRs), the G protein-coupled receptors for GABA, regulate synaptic transmission throughout the brain. A main synaptic function of GBRs is the gating of Cav2.2-type Ca2+ channels. However, the cellular compartment where stable GBR/Cav2.2 signaling complexes form remains unknown.
