Anti-Connexin-40 (Cx40) Antilichaam

FUNCTION: One gap junction consists of a cluster of closely packed pairs of transmembrane channels, the connexons, through which materials of low molecular weight diffuse from one cell to a neighboring cell. SUBUNIT: A connexon is composed of a hexamer of connexins. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in lung. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the connexin family. Alpha-type (group II) subfamily.

Our Anti-Connexin-40 (Cx40) sheep polyclonal primary antibody detects rat Connexin-40 (Cx40), and is whole serum. It is validated for use in IHC, WB.

25°C (ambient)

Spin vial briefly before opening. Reconstitute in 100 μL sterile-filtered, ultrapure water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. After reconstitution keep aliquots at -20°C for a higher stability, and at 2-8°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid repetitive freeze/thaw cycles.

It is reported that the Cx40/254 antibody did not cross react with rat Cx43 but may with Cx45 in Western blots only (Rummery, NM et al 2002) .
