Western Blot (WB)

Scientific Background: NCC, a thiazide-sensitive NaCl co-transporter, is found on the apical membrane of the distal convoluted tubule, where it is the principal mediator of Na+ and Cl- reabsorption in this segment of the nephron. It is activated by phosphorylation, and has been implicated in renal NaCl and K+ homeostasis (1). Regulation of NCC expression and phosphorylation by dietary NACl restriction appears to involve SGK1(1). In experiments with angiotensin II-infused mice, increased sensitivity to Ang II may involved over-activity of NCC (2). Therefore, NCC is the target of thiazide diuretics used in the treatment of hypertension (1). Molecular experiments have also shown that NCC has been detected in the lens cortex, core and fiber cells of a rat (3).
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a renal thiazide-sensitive sodium-chloride cotransporter that is important for electrolyte homeostasis. This cotransporter mediates sodium and chloride reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule. Mutations in this gene cause Gitelman syndrome, a disease similar to Bartter's syndrome, that is characterized by hypokalemic alkalosis combined with hypomagnesemia, low urinary calcium, and increased renin activity associated with normal blood pressure. This cotransporter is the target for thiazide diuretics that are used for treating high blood pressure. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description
NCCT: Key mediator of sodium and chloride reabsorption in this nephron segment, accounting for a significant fraction of renal sodium reabsorption. Interacts with KLHL3. Predominant in kidney. Activated by WNK3. Belongs to the SLC12A transporter family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SLC12A3 slc12a3 (Catalog #AAA806803) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The NCC Antibody: FITC reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's NCC can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF). 1:1000 (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC12A3 slc12a3 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 "NCC, 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.Precautions
