Application Notes
- SR-4 reacts with cardiotin, a mitochondrion-associated protein, which is present in cardiomyocytes and skeletal muscle, but also in epithelial cells and tissues. SR-4 is useful for immunohistochemistry on frozen tissue sections and immunoblotting. In immunoblotting assays SR-4 reacts exclusively with the 300 kDa cardiotin protein complex. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration, recommended range is 1:25 - 1:50 for flow cytometry, and for immunohistochemistry with avidin-biotinylated horseradish peroxidase complex (ABC) as detection reagent, and 1:25 - 1:250 for immunoblotting applications.

Background
- Cardiotin is a high molecular weight protein complex (300 kDa) located in the mitochondria of cardiomyocytes and skeletal muscle. The cardiotin structure exists of subunits of 60 kDa and 100 kDa, probably in a tetrameric configuration. Both subunits contain the same amino-terminal 14 amino-acid sequence, showing high homology to human skeletal muscle alpha-actinin. During cardiac contractile dysfunction and myocard cell differentiation, the cardiotin distribution is affected. Compared to other structural proteins, cardiotin is one of the first to respond to insults (ischemia, fibrillation) that influence the functional status of cardiomyocytes.
