Product Summary for Connexin 43/GJA1 Antibody (M496)

Immunogen

Clone M496 was generated from a peptide fragment in the C-terminal region of human Connexin 43/GJA1. This sequence is highly conserved in mouse and rat Connexin 43/GJA1. [UniProt# P17302]

Specificity

The antibody detects a 43 kDa protein corresponding to the apparent molecular mass of Connexin 43/GJA1 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of mouse brain. The antibody is also useful for immunofluorescent labeling of gap junctions in cells.

Clonality

Monoclonal

Host

Mouse

Isotype

IgG1

Theoretical MW

43 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Description

Background: Connexin 43/GJA1

Connexin 43/GJA1 is a member of the connexin gene family and a component of gap junctions. Gap junctions are composed of arrays of intercellular channels and provide a route for the diffusion of materials of low molecular weight from cell to cell. GJA1 is the major cardiac gap junction protein, which is thought to have a crucial role in the synchronized contraction of the heart and in embryonic development. GJA1 is targeted by several protein kinases that regulate myocardial cell cell coupling. A related intronless GJA1 pseudogene, GJA1P, has been mapped to chromosome 5.
