General description
DHP receptor is composed of at least four subunits. The α1 subunit contains the binding site for the DHPs and shows high sequence homology to the voltage gated Na+ channel. The α2 subunit is a large glycoprotein and the other 2 subunits are termed β and γ.
Specificity
Reacts specifically with the α1 subunit of the DHP receptor. May be used to inhibit the DHP-sensitive calcium current in BC3H1 mouse muscle cells. By immunohistochemistry, double rows of discrete punctate staining represent pairs of triads on the opposing sides of the Z-lines.
Immunogen
rabbit muscle transverse tubule dihydropyridine (DHP) receptors.
Application
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunofluorescence (1 paper)
Immunofluorescence (1 paper)
Monoclonal Anti-Dihydropyridine Receptor (α1 Subunit) antibody produced in mouse is suitable for immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemistry at a working dilution of 1:500 and immunoblotting at 1:2000. It was used for the detection and localization of DHPR-1α by western blotting in skeletal muscle tissue sections of mice in a study. The antibody may be used to inhibit the DHP-sensitive calcium current in BC3H1 mouse muscle cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The 1,4-dihydropyridines (DHPs) are synthetic organic compounds which can be used to identify the L-type Ca2+ channels that are found in all types of vertebrate muscle, neuronal and neuroendocrine cells. DHP receptor is part of the L-type calcium channel complex and is thought to be the voltage sensor in E-C coupling.
Physical form
Solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.05% sodium azide.

Neural prostheses can restore meaningful function to paralysed muscles by electrically stimulating innervating motor axons, but fail when muscles are completely denervated, as seen in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or after a peripheral nerve or spinal cord injury. Here we show

A monoclonal antibody, mAb 1A, that immunoprecipitates the [3H]PN200-110-binding complex from rabbit skeletal muscle has been used to study the subunit structure of the dihydropyridine-sensitive, voltage-activated calcium channel. Digitonin-solubilized [3H]PN200-110-binding component, purified by wheat germ agglutinin chromatography, sediments as a

Mitsugumin 56 (MG56), also known as the membrane-bound O-acyl-transferase family member hedgehog acyltransferase-like, was identified as a new sarcoplasmic reticulum component in striated muscle. Mg56-knockout mice grew normally for a week after birth, but shortly thereafter exhibited a suckling defect
