General description
Calbindin-D-28K (CALB1) is a calcium binding protein in the brain. This 27kDa protein is located on human chromosome 8q21.
Calbindin-D-28k is an intracellular protein characterized by EF-hand type structural motifs that bind to Ca2+. This protein modulates synaptic plasticity and signal transduction . Anti-Calbindin-D-28K (EG-20) antibody recognizes rat calbindin-D-28K (28 kDa). Due to interspecies similarity, reactivity with human, mouse, bovine, chicken, porcine, and frog is expected, but has not been confirmed. Staining of calbindin-D-28K is specifically inhibited with the calbindin-D-28K immunizing peptide by immunoblotting.
Immunogen
The immunogen sequence is specific for calbindin-D-28K and is not found in other members of the EF-hand family such as calbindin-D-9K, calretinin, myosin light chain, parvalbumin, S-100a, S-100b, S100A2 (S100L) and S100A6 (calcyclin). This sequence is highly conserved across species, including human, mouse, bovine, chicken, porcine, and frog calbindin-D-28K sequences.
synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal region of rat calbindin-D-28K (amino acids 225-244 with N-terminally added Lys-Gly) conjugated to KLH.
Application
Anti-Calbindin-D-28K (EG-20) antibody is suitable for use in immunohistochemistry (1:2,000 using sections of rat cerebellum), immunoblot and western blot (1:2,000 using a whole extract of rat brain). Enzymatic predigestion of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections by proteolytic enzymes (e.g., 0.1% trypsin or protease, 10 min., at RT or 37 ° C) improves immunohistochemical staining with the antibody.
Anti-Calbindin-D-28K (EG-20) antibody has been used in immunohistochemical (IHC) peroxidase staining and cupric silver staining. It has also been used in immunofluorescence.
