Product Name :
Rabbit anti Rat Potassium Channel

Description :
| Isotype IgG | Product Type Polyclonal Antibody | Units 100 µg | Host Rabbit | Species Reactivity Rat | Application Immunofluorescence Immunoprecipitation Western Blotting

Background :
Rabbits were immunized with a peptide representing amino acids 453-470 of rat Kv4.2 conjugated to KLH.

Source :
Pore-forming (alpha) subunit of voltage-gated rapidly inactivating A-type potassium channels. May contribute to Icurrent in heart and current in neurons. Channel properties are modulated by interactions with other alpha subunits and with regulatory subunits In response to membrane depolarization, Kv4.2 channels accumulate in the closed-inactivated state(s), from which they directly recover, bypassing the open state. Kv4.2 is a substrate for ERK in vitro and in vivo, and suggest that ERK may regulate potassium-channel function by direct phosphorylation of the pore-forming alpha subunit. Synonyms: RK5, Shal1, Kcnd2, Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily D member 2 <

Antibodies are immunoglobulins secreted by effector lymphoid B cells into the bloodstream. Antibodies consist of two light peptide chains and two heavy peptide chains that are linked to each other by disulfide bonds to form a “Y” shaped structure. Both tips of the “Y” structure contain binding sites for a specific antigen. Antibodies are commonly used in medical research, pharmacological research, laboratory research, and health and epidemiological research. They play an important role in hot research areas such as targeted drug development, in vitro diagnostic assays, characterization of signaling pathways, detection of protein expression levels, and identification of candidate biomarkers.
