Calbindin D28k antibody - 214 011C5

Calbindin D28k is a vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein
Mouse monoclonal purified IgG
Cat. No.: 214 011C5
Amount: 100 µg
Price: $465.00
Cat. No. 214 011C5 100 µg purified IgG, lyophilized, fluorescence-labeled with Oyster® 650

Fluorescence labeled antibodies conjugated to Oyster dyes from Luminartis GmbH (formerly Denovo Biolabels) allow the usage of established CyDye fluorescence detection systems. Oyster-488 has similar exitation and emission properties as Cy2, Oyster-550 as Cy3, and Oyster-650 is comparable to Cy5.
For our custom antibody labeling service Oyster-500 is also available.
Oyster dyes do not form dimers and therefore exhibit less internal quenching. This allows a higher labeling degree and consequently brighter conjugates.

Oyster dyes, Oyster-488, Oyster-500, Oyster-550, and Oyster-650 are trademarks of Luminartis GmbH, Muenster/Germany.

. Albumin was 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.The mounting agent Aquatex®(Merck Chemicals) is not compatible with Oyster dyes!

Background

Two isoforms of the vitamin D-dependent Ca-binding proteins have been described so far: calbindin D28k, also referred to as CALB 1, D-28k, and CAB 27, and calbindin D29k, also known as calretinin. These proteins are expressed in cells that have to handle a high calcium influx such as brain, bone, teeth, inner ear and others. Calbindins are believed to regulate cellular activity by suppressing or buffering intracellur calcium. In the brain calbindin D28k is a useful marker for specific neuronal cell types. It is particularly concentrated in the dendrites and perikarya of cerebellar Purkinje cells, but is also found in many GABAergic interneurons in the cortex.
