Gene Information

mouse ... Kcnab2(16498)

General description

Voltage-gated potassium channel subunit beta-2, also known as Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 or K(+) channel subunit beta-2 or Kv-beta-2, and encoded by the gene Kcnab2/Ckbeta2/Kcnb3, is part of the multi-subunit complex that comprises the potassium ion channel. Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 modulates the activity of the pore-forming alpha subunit of the potassium channel. Additionally, Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 forms heteromultimeric complexes with not only alpha subunits but also with kinase complexes such as PRKCZ and sequestosome complexes SQSTM1. Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 is localized to the plasma membrane and cytoplasm.

Specificity

Other homologies: 100% homology to mouse KvB2.
This antibody does not cross react with Potassium Channel KvBeta1 or Potassium Channel Kv2.1 (Rhodes, K., et al. (1996). Journal of Neuro. 16(16):4846-4860).

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to rat Potassium Channel Kvβ2.

Application

Detect Kv β2 using this mouse monoclonal antibody, Anti-Potassium Channel Kvβ2 Antibody validated for use in western blotting, IHC & ICC.
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected Potassium Channel Kvβ2 in mammalian hippocampal neurons (Bu, C., et al. (2006). Neuron 52(5):803-816).
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:50 dilution from a representative lot detected Potassium Channel Kvβ2 in human cerebellum, rat cerebellum, human cerebral cortex, and rat hindbrain tissue.
