Product Specific Information

This antibody cross reacts with amylin (IAPP).

For immunofluorescence applications, overnight incubation at 4ºC is required. Stefanini fixed frozen sections of rat colon can be used as a positive control for this antibody.

Reconstitute with 50-100 µL of distilled water, and dilute further in 0.1M PBS with 1% BSA and 0.1% sodium azide. Once reconstituted, store at -20ºC.

Target Information

This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide and katacalcin by tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing of the gene transcripts and cleavage of inactive precursor proteins. Calcitonin is involved in calcium regulation and acts to regulate phosphorus metabolism. Calcitonin gene-related peptide functions as a vasodilator while katacalcin is a calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
