Scientific Data Images for Human/Mouse Kir2.1 Antibody

Detection of Human Kir2.1 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human Kir2.1 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of Human heart ventricle tissue and human lung tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 3 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-Human/Mouse Kir2.1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9548) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF008). A specific band was detected for Kir2.1 at approximately 50-55 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Kir2.1 in Human Heart.

Kir2.1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human heart using Rabbit Anti-Human/Mouse Kir2.1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9548) at 3 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Rabbit IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC003). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to intercalated discs.

Background: Kir2.1

Human Inward Rectifier Potassium Channel 2 (KIR2.1), also known as KCNJ2, is a 427 amino acid (aa) integral membrane protein with 98% homology with mouse and rat KIR2.1.   This potassium channel preferentially allows potassium to flow into the cell, which is thought to generate action potential waveform and excitability in neuronal and muscle tissues. Mutations in the KIR2.1 gene are associated with Andersen syndrome, with associated paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias and dysmorphic features. KIR2.1 is widely expressed, notably in heart, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney and spleen. Expression of KIR2.1 is necessary for development of mature cardiomyocytes from mouse embryonic stem cells.
