표적 설명
Calcium-activated potassium channel subunit alpha-1 (UniProt: Q12791; also known as BK channel, BKCA alpha, Calcium-activated potassium channel subfamily M subunit alpha-1, K(VCA)alpha, KCa1.1, Maxi K channel, MaxiK, Slo-alpha, Slo1, Slowpoke homolog, Slo homolog, hSlo) is encoded by the KCNMA1 (also known as KCNMA, SLO) gene (Gene ID: 3778) in human. Maxi K is a homotetrameric, multi-pass membrane protein that contains five extracellular domains, seven transmembrane domains (S0-S6), four cytoplasmic domains, and one pore forming region (aa 336-358). With the exception of monocytes, it is widely expressed. It serves as the large-conductance Ca2+- and voltage-activated K+ channel that plays a role in cell signalling by interacting with a multiplicity of proteins at plasma membrane and intracellular organelles including the endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus, and mitochondria. Its structure consists of four -subunits, each formed by 7 transmembrane segments and a large C-terminus that constitutes about two thirds of the protein. The S4 segment (aa 265-285) that contains a series of positively charged amino acids at every third position serves as the voltage-sensor. Maxi K channel plays a key role in controlling excitability in a number of systems, such as regulation of the contraction of smooth muscle, the tuning of hair cells in the cochlea, regulation of transmitter release, and innate immunity. In smooth muscles, its activation by high level of Ca2+, caused by ryanodine receptors in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, regulates the membrane potential. In cochlea cells, its number and kinetic properties partly determine the characteristic frequency of each hair cell and thereby helps to establish a tonotopic map. Maxi K is reported to be highly sensitive to iberiotoxin and charybdotoxin. This ZooMAbZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

물리적 형태
Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.
재구성
300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
저장 및 안정성
Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
