"TC Supernatant" vs. "Purified"

TC Supernatant
Hybridoma tissue-culture supernatant (5mL) generally containing 10-50 ug/mL monoclonal antibody (clone-dependent) can be a very economical choice. Supernatant is suitable for most applications including Western Blot, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry etc. For applications requiring higher antibody concentration or purity (such as immunoprecipitation, microinjection, or conjugation) it is recommended that you purchase the purified form of the antibody (supplied at 1mg/mL).

Purified mAbs
Produced by in vitro bioreactor culture of hybridoma lines followed by Protein A affinity chromatography. Purified mAbs are >90% specific antibody at 1mg/mL.

IHC IP WB

Target Description:

Kv 2.1 K+ channel (Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily B member 1), which is encoded by KCNB1 gene, is a member of the Potassium voltage-gated channel familly. This protein, mainly expressed in the central nervous system, functions as a delayed rectifier. Indeed, it regulates the action potential (AP) repolarization as well as duration and frequency of repetitive AP firing in neurons, muscle cells and endocrine cells. Kv2.1 K+ channel switches between open or closed conformation in response to the voltage difference across the membrane. This process directs the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes, which lets potassium ions pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. Kv2.1 K+ channel is widely used as a marker to measure membrane excitability in hippocampal neurons.

Immunogen:

Synthetic peptide amino acids 837-853 (HMLPGGGAHGSTRDQSI, cytoplasmic Cterminus) of rat Kv2.1 (also known as Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily B member 1, Delayed rectifier potassium channel 1, DRK1, Kcnb1 and Shab, accession number P15387); Mouse: 100% identity (17/17 amino acids identical); Human: 88% identity (15/17 amino acids identical, RVLPGGGAHGSTRDQSI)
