Gene Information

human ... CHRNA1(1134)

General description

CHRNA1 encodes the α subunit of the muscle acetylcholine receptor and is involved in acetyl choline binding and channel gating functions. The expression of CHRNA1 in thymus tissues is controlled by IRF8 and AIRE.
Rabbit Anti-CHRNA1 recognizes mouse, bovine, canine, and human CHRNA1.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human CHRNA1

Application

Rabbit Anti-CHRNA1 is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 0.5 μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The muscle acetylcholine receptor consiststs of 5 subunits of 4 different types: 2 alpha isoforms and 1 each of beta, gamma, and delta subunits.2 The CHRNA1 gene encodes an alpha subunit that plays a role in acetlycholine binding/channel gating.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: AGLVLGSEHETRLVAKLFKDYSSVVRPVEDHRQVVEVTVGLQLIQLINVD

Physical form

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

Promiscuous expression of tissue-restricted auto-antigens in the thymus imposes T-cell tolerance and provides protection from autoimmune diseases. Promiscuous expression of a set of self-antigens occurs in medullary thymic epithelial cells and is partly controlled by the autoimmune regulator (AIRE), a
