Preparation and Storage
Store at 4 degree C for frequent use. Aliquot and store at -20 degree C for 12 months.
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and katacalcin. Alternative splicing of the mRNA results in multiple variants that encode either calcitonin or CGRP preproproteins. Post-translational processing of the calcitonin and CGRP propeptides results in either calcitonin and katacalcin, or CGRP, respectively. Calcitonin and katacalcin modulate calcium levels in the blood stream. CGRP can function as a vasodilator and play a role in the transmission of pain. The human homolog of CGRP was found to have antimicrobial activity. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]

Uniprot Description

CALCA: Calcitonin causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones. Belongs to the calcitonin family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide

Cellular Component: axon; cell soma; cytoplasm; extracellular region; extracellular space; intracellular; neuron projection; nucleus; terminal button

Molecular Function: calcitonin receptor binding; receptor binding

Biological Process: adenylate cyclase activation; cellular calcium ion homeostasis; detection of temperature stimulus involved in sensory perception of pain; feeding behavior; G-protein signaling, adenylate cyclase activating pathway; inflammatory response; negative regulation of blood pressure; negative regulation of neurological process; negative regulation of ossification; negative regulation of smooth muscle contraction; neuromuscular junction development; neuropeptide signaling pathway; positive regulation of cell adhesion; positive regulation of ossification; regulation of blood pressure; regulation of heart contraction; regulation of heart rate; regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure by neurological process; response to heat; response to pain; sperm capacitation; vasodilation; vasodilation of artery during baroreceptor response to increased systemic arterial blood pressure

Product Notes

The PCT calca (Catalog #AAA2107668) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The APC-Linked Polyclonal Antibody to Procalcitonin (PCT) reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Procalcitonin (PCT) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunoprecipitation (IP). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PCT calca 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. The amino acid sequence is listed below: Val26~Asn1 36. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Procalcitonin (PCT), 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.
