Gene Information

human ... SLC26A5(375611)

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human SLC26A5

Application

Anti-SLC26A5 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 2.5μg/ml and for immunohistochemistry of paraffin-embedded tissue sections at a concentration of 4-8μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SLC26A5 (Prestin), a member of SLC26 family, is an anion transporter that functions at microsecond rates. It is expressed at the basolateral membrane of cochlear outer hair cells and modulates the sensitivity of mammalian hearing. Mutations in the gene encoding for prestin result in neurosensory deafness.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: FSVTISMAKTLANKHGYQVDGNQELIALGLCNSIGSLFQTFSISCSLSRS

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Prestin (SLC26A5) is a member of the SLC26/SulP anion transporter family. Its unique quasi-piezoelectric mechanical activity generates fast cellular motility of cochlear outer hair cells, a key process underlying active amplification in the mammalian ear. Despite its established physiological role
Seth L Alper et al.
Molecular aspects of medicine, 34(2-3), 494-515 (2013-03-20)
The phylogenetically ancient SLC26 gene family encodes multifunctional anion exchangers and anion channels transporting a broad range of substrates, including Cl(-), HCO3(-), sulfate, oxalate, I(-), and formate. SLC26 polypeptides are characterized by N-terminal cytoplasmic domains, 10-14 hydrophobic transmembrane spans, and
