- Extra Details:
- Reticulocalbin 2 is a calcium-binding protein located in the lumen of the ER, contains six conserved regions with similarity to a high affinity Ca(+2)-binding motif, the EF-hand. The predicted 317aa RCN2 protein contains an N-terminal signal sequence, 6 copies of the EF-hand motif, and a C-terminal His-Asp-Glu-Leu (HDEL) sequence, which was originally defined as an ER retention motif in yeast proteins. Immunocytolocalization and cell fractionation studies demonstrated that RCN2 is a resident ER protein; the HDEL motif is required for its ER retention. RCN2 was detected by antibodies in all cell lines tested. It binds calcium in vitro. By Western blotting, in vitro translated RCN2 protein has a molecular mass of 55kD, leading the authors to designate it the 'endoplasmic reticulum calcium-binding protein of 55kD' (ERC55). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
