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

Secretagogin, also known as SCGN or SECRET, is a member of the EF-hand (E-helix-loop-F-helix-hand) superfamily of calcium-binding proteins with homology to calbindin-D28k (CALB1) and calretinin (CALB2) which are widely expressed in cells and tissues. Calcium-binding proteins of different subfamilies regulate calcium as a second messenger. Calbindin, calretinin, calmodulin, S-100, parvalbumin and troponin C are members of the low molecular weight calcium-binding protein family.

Interaction between secretagogin and vesicle trafficking proteins, including SNAP25, SNAP23, ARFGAP2, and DOC2A, suggests a possible role for SCGN in neurotransmitter and hormone release.

The secretagogin protein was isolated from pancreatic islets of Langerhans and insulinomas, and shows abundant pancreatic expression and reduced expression in thyroid, adrenal medulla, stomach, small intestine, and colon.
