"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.

Target Description:

Voltage-dependent T-type calcium channel subunit alpha or Cav3.1 Ca2+ channel is encoded by the gene CACNA1G. Cav3.1 is a pore forming alpha subunit of T voltage-sensitive calcium channels and gives rise to T-type calcium currents. (transient opening calcium channels). These channels facilitate entry of calcium ions into excitable cells are involved in a variety of calcium dependent processes, including neurotransmitter release, muscle contraction, and gene expression. Cav3.1 is expressed in various tissues including heart and smooth muscle, kidney, bone, and brain as a membrane bound protein. Diseases associated with this gene include forms of Spinocerebellar Ataxia

Immunogen:

Fusion protein amino acids 2052-2172 (cytoplasmic C-terminus) of mouse Cav3.1 (also known as Voltage-gated/dependent T-type calcium channel alpha-1-G subunit, Cacna1g and NBR13, accession number Q9WUT2); Rat: 96% identity (117/121 amino acids identical); Human: 80% identity (98/122 amino acids identical); 30% identity with Cav3.2

Protein Name(s):

Cav3.1 Ca2+ channel

Gene Name(s):

Cacna1g
