Specificity

Recognizes a full length Kir3.2 (GIRK2, G-protein Activated Inwardly Rectifying Potassium Channel 2). Does not cross react with any other potassium channel antigens tested so far.

Immunogen

GST fusion protein from the C-terminal portion of mouse GIRK2 protein (amino acids 374-414) (Accession P48542).

Application

Anti-Potassium Channel GIRK2 Antibody detects level of Potassium Channel GIRK2 & has been published & validated for use in IH & WB.
Research Category
Neuroscience
Research Sub Category
Ion Channels & Transporters
Western blot: 1:200 using ECL on rat brain membranes.

Immunohistochemistry on rat brain sections.

Dilutions should be made using a carrier protein such as BSA (1-3%)

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Physical form

Affinity purified immunoglobulin. Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA, 5% sucrose as a stabilizer and 0.025% sodium azide as a preservative. Reconstitute with 200 μL of sterile deionized water. Centrifuge antibody preparation before use (10,000 xg for 5 min).

Storage and Stability

Maintain lyophilized material at -20°C for up to 12 months. After reconstitution maintain at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles

Analysis Note

Control
CONTROL ANTIGEN: Included free of charge with the antibody is 120 μg of control antigen (lyophilized powder). The stock solution of the antigen can be made up using 100 μL of PBS. For positive control, in Western blot use 20 ng of protein per minigel lane. For negative control, preincubate 3 μg of fusion protein with 1 μg of antibody for one hour at room temperature. Optimal concentrations must be determined by the end user.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
