Product Specific Information

MA3-941 detects mu-calpain from human platelets and erythrocytes, bovine platelets, heart and skeletal muscle, rat myoblasts, kidney, liver and spleen, and pig cultured cells. This antibody does not cross-react with m-calpain, n-calpain, calmodulin or calpastatin.

MA3-941 has been successfully used in Western blot, IF and immunocytochemistry procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects an ~80 kDa protein representing mu-calpain from human platelets and erythrocytes. Immunocytochemical staining of mu-calpain in porcine LLC-PK1 cells with MA3-941 results in diffuse cytoplasmic staining. This product has not been shown to be effective in immunoprecipitation experiments.

The MA3-941 antigen is purified bovine skeletal muscle 80 kDa mu-calpain subunit. This antibody recognizes an epitope between amino acids 245-265 (domain II) of human mu-calpain.

Target Information

The calpains including Calpain 1 (CAPN1), calcium-activated neutral proteases, are nonlysosomal, intracellular cysteine proteases. The mammalian calpains include ubiquitous, stomach-specific, and muscle-specific proteins. The ubiquitous enzymes consist of heterodimers with distinct large, catalytic subunits associated with a common small, regulatory subunit. This gene encodes the large subunit of the ubiquitous enzyme, calpain 1. Several transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. Diseases associated with CAPN1 include Spastic Paraplegia 76, Autosomal Recessive and Spasticity.
