Parvalbumin antibody - 195 011C3

Parvalbumin is calcium binding protein specific for a subpopulation of GABAergic interneurones
Mouse monoclonal purified IgG
Cat. No.: 195 011C3
Amount: 100 µg
Price: $465.00
Cat. No. 195 011C3 100 µg purified IgG, lyophilized, fluorescence-labeled with Cyanine 3.

Fluorescence labeled antibodies conjugated to (Sulfo-)Cyanine dyes are well suited for standard epi-fluorescence setups and confocal microscopy.

Cyanine 2: λex 492 nm / λem 508 nm
Sulfo-Cyanine 3: λex 554 nm / λem 568 nm
Sulfo-Cyanine 5: λex 649 nm / λem 667 nm

(Sulfo-)Cyanine 5 dyes are well suited for STORM high resolution microscopy.
Sulfo-Cyanines are highly water soluble and allow a higher labeling degree and consequently brighter conjugates.

Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 100 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Either add 1:1 (v/v) glycerol, then aliquot and store at -20°C until use, or store aliquots at -80°C without additives.
Reconstitute immediately upon receipt! Avoid bright light when working with the antibody to minimize photo bleeching of the fluorescent dye.

WB: N/A
IP: N/A
ICC: not tested yet
IHC: 1 : 200 up to 1 : 500 gallery

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Background

Parvalbumin is a small, acidic calcium binding protein and belongs to the family of EF hand proteins. The protein is found in skeletal muscle and the brain of vertebrates where it locates to a specific population of GABAergic interneurons. This subset of neurons may contribute to maintaining the balance between excitation and inhibition in the cortex and the hippocampus.
