Application Notes
IP: 2-5ug has been reported by an independent laboratory to immunoprecipitate Stargazin in rat P2 lysate.
WB: 0.5-2.0ug/ml detects Stargazin in RIPA lysates from rat brain microsomal preparation. Rat brain microsomal preparation was resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose and probed with anti-Stargazin (0.5ug/ml). Proteins were visualized using a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system.
Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
Immunogen
KLH-conjugated, synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 305-323 (KDSKDSLHANTANRRTTPV) of rat Stargazin.
Conjugate
PE
Note
Preservative Free
Preparation and Storage
May be stored at 4 degree C for short-term only. For long-term storage, store at -20 degree C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degree C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory protein (TARP). TARPs regulate both trafficking and channel gating of the AMPA receptors. This gene is part of a functionally diverse eight-member protein subfamily of the PMP-22/EMP/MP20 family. This gene is a susceptibility locus for schizophrenia. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Uniprot Description

Function: Regulates the trafficking and gating properties of AMPA-selective glutamate receptors (AMPARs). Promotes their targeting to the cell membrane and synapses and modulates their gating properties by slowing their rates of activation, deactivation and desensitization. Does not show subunit-specific AMPA receptor regulation and regulates all AMPAR subunits. Thought to stabilize the calcium channel in an inactivated (closed) state. Ref.5

Subunit structure: The L-type calcium channel is composed of five subunits: alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta and gamma. Interacts with the PDZ domains of DLG4/PSD-95 and DLG1/SAP97. May interact with GOPC

By similarity. Acts as an auxiliary subunit for AMPA-selective glutamate receptors (AMPARs). Found in a complex with GRIA1, GRIA2, GRIA3, GRIA4, CNIH2, CNIH3, CACNG3, CACNG4, CACNG5, CACNG7 and CACNG8

By similarity. Interacts with GRIA1. Ref.5

Subcellular location: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Tissue specificity: Brain.

Post-translational modification: Phosphorylation of Thr-321 impairs interaction with DLG1 and DLG4.

Involvement in disease: Mental retardation, autosomal dominant 10 (MRD10) [MIM:614256]: A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptative behavior and manifested during the developmental period.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.6

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the PMP-22/EMP/MP20 family. CACNG subfamily.

Product Notes

The CACNG2 cacng2 (Catalog #AAA6500879) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Stargazin, CT (Ca2 Gamma Subunit of Voltage-gated Calcium Channel, Cacng2) (PE) reacts with Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Stargazin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunoprecipitation (IP), Western Blot (WB). IP: 2-5ug has been reported by an independent laboratory to immunoprecipitate Stargazin in rat P2 lysate. WB: 0.5-2.0ug/ml detects Stargazin in RIPA lysates from rat brain microsomal preparation. Rat brain microsomal preparation was resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose and probed with anti-Stargazin (0.5ug/ml). Proteins were visualized using a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system. Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CACNG2 cacng2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Stargazin, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
