- Extra Details:
- Calpain-1 catalytic subunit is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CAPN1 gene. Calpain is an intracellular protease that requires calcium for its catalytic activity. Two isozymes, calpain I (mu-calpain) and calpain II (m-calpain), with different calcium requirements, have been identified. Both are heterodimers composed of L (large, catalytic, 80 kD) and S (small, regulatory, 30 kD) subunits. The isozymes share an identical S subunit, with the differences arising from the L subunits, L1 (CAPN1) and L2. By quantitative RT-PCR, Ueyama et al. (1998) found that expression of calpain-1 and calpain-2 mRNA was significantly increased in muscle biopsy samples derived from 5 men with progressive muscular dystrophy (e.g., DMD; 310200) and 2 men and 3 women with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS; 105400) compared with controls. Using cDNA clones as probes, Ohno et al. (1989, 1990) assign CANPL1 to chromosome 11. UniProt Number: P07384 Gene ID: CAPN1 Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin and Frozen), and Immunocytochemistry. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
