General description

Calpain-1 (CAPN1), an intracellular, calcium-dependent cysteine protease, has four domains, such as, the N-terminal anchor helix region, the CysPc protease domain, the C2 domain-like domain and the penta-EF-hand domain (PEF). CAPN1 codes for μ-calpain protein. CAPN1 gene is abundantly expressed in the central nervous system (CNS). This gene is located on human chromosome 11q13.1.

Specificity

Specifically recognizes the 80 kDa subunit of μ-calpain as well as two smaller proteins that are presumed to be degradation products.

Immunogen

purified human μ-calpain from placenta (calpain-I, protein kinase-C activating factor, E.C. 3.4.22.17).

Application

Monoclonal Anti-μ-Calpain (Calpain I, subunit p80) antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
  • western blotting
  • co-immunoprecipitation
  • immunofluorescence
  • immunofluorescence staining

Biochem/physiol Actions

Calpain-1 (CAPN1) plays a key role in microtubular regulation, cerebellar development, synaptic plasticity, synaptic restructuring, axon maturation and maintenance. CAPN1 activation is essential to provide a neuro-protective role in central nervous system (CNS). Mutations on CAPN1 gene results in spastic paraplegia 76 (SPG7), a complicated form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP).

Physical form

Solution in 20 mM sodium phosphate, 150 mM sodium chloride, 50% glycerol, pH 7.5, and 3 mM sodium azide.
