Calbindin-D is a highly conserved 28 kD (261 aa) protein that belongs to a family of low molecular weight calcium-binding proteins (CaBPs). Calbindin-D has 4 active calcium binding domains. It plays a role in the regulation of calcium and calcium related signalling in neurons and during embryo development.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 0.5-1.0ug/ml, has a predicted length of 261aa and a MW of 28kD
Immunohistochemistry (formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues) 1-2ug/ml
Optimal dilution determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
Lyophilized powder may be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Reconstitute to nominal volume by adding sterile 40-50% glycerol and store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees 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.
