SKU:: C6000-05
Purity:: Serum
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Rabbit
Immunogen:: Synthetic peptide corresponding to 18aa sequence near the N-terminus of rat/mouse CNG2 (KLH). Species sequence homology: mouse (100%); bovine and rabbit: (94%).
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in PBS, 0.05% sodium azide.
Extra Details:: The cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP are implicated in signal transduction events such as the visual transduction, relaxation of smooth muscles, intestinal secretion of water and salt, reabsorption of Na+ and water in the distal tubule of the nephrons. cAMP/cGMP activate Ca2+ -permeable ion channels called cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNG or CNC). Activation of CNG leads to depolarization of the membrane voltage and to a concomitant increase of the cytosolic Ca2+. CNG consists of two distinct subunits, designated a and b subunits. Several CNG a-subunits (CNG alpha 1-3) & beta subunits (subunit 2 or CNGb1-2 or CNG4-5) and numerous isoforms. a-subunit can form functional channel by themselves. b-subunits modulate the channel property of a-subunits. CNG display intracellular N and C-termini, 6 transmembrane domains or segments (S1-S6). The region between S5 and S6 contains the ion-conducting pore (P). The cyclic nucleotide-binding region is found at the c-terminus. Native functional CNG may exists as heteromultimer containing some combination of a, and b subunits. CNG2 or OCNC1 (rat/mouse/rabbit 664 aa, bovine 663 aa) is primarily expressed in olfactory sensory neurons. It is ~80% homologous with CNG1. Unlike CNG1, CNG2 is activated both by cAMP and cGMP. Another cGMP-gated channel called CNG3 (mouse 537aa, rat 61 aa, human, 694aa, bovine 706aa, chicken 64 aa) has been cloned from heart, kidney, testis, sperm, and taste buds. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Western Blot, though not tested, may potentially be used as an application. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000-1:5000 (ECL). ELISA: 1:10,000-1:50,000. Coat ELISA plates at 1ug/ml with Control Peptide. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Recommended Control Peptide: C6000-07 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 at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
