Product Specific Information

Reconstitution: 25 µL, 50 µL or 0.2 mL double distilled water (DDW), depending on the sample size. The antibody ships as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon arrival, it should be stored at -20C. The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4C for up to 1 week. For longer periods, small aliquots should be stored at -20C. Avoid multiple freezing and thawing. Centrifuge all antibody preparations before use (10000 x g 5 min).

Target Information

The sodium channel protein type 8 subunit alpha (Na+ CP type VIII alpha ) is a multi-pass, transmembrane protein that mediates the sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. The three glycoproteins that comprise the voltage-gated sodium channel proteins include a pore-forming alpha subunit, a noncovalently associated beta1 subunit and a disulfide-linked beta2 subunit. The two beta subunits regulate the level of channel expression, modulate gating and function as cell adhesion molecules for cellular aggregation and cytoskeleton interaction. The alpha subunits of sodium channels type I and III are predominantly expressed in neuronal cell bodies and proximal processes, while type II alpha subunits are more abundant along axons. Sodium channels are important for rapid signal transduction but also play a significant role in neuronal development. Defects of the SCN8A gene have exhibited detrimental effects on the growth of secondary motoneurons. Loss of SCN8A expression will result in progressive paralysis and early death.
