Quick Overview for Recombinant Caldesmon HMW antibody (ABIN7860956)

Target: Caldesmon HMW

Antibody Type: Recombinant Antibody

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: Un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB)

Clone: RCALD1-820

Product Details

Purpose: Recombinant Caldesmon, HMW (h-Caldesmon) (Smooth Muscle Marker) Antibody

Specificity: Recognizes a protein of 150 kDa, which is identified as the high molecular weight variant of Caldesmon. Two closely related variants of human caldesmon have been identified which are different in their electrophoretic mobility and cellular distribution. The h-caldesmon variant (120 150 kDa) is predominantly expressed in smooth muscle whereas l-caldesmon (70 80 kDa) is found in non- muscle tissue and cells. Neither of the two variants has been detected in skeletal muscle. This MAb recognizes only the 150 kDa variant (h-caldesmon) in Western blots of human aortic media extracts and is unreactive with fibroblast extracts from cultivated human foreskin. Caldesmon is a developmentally regulated protein involved in smooth muscle and non-muscle contraction.

Purification: 200ug/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor Concentrate by Protein A/G.
