"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:

Kir2.1 (KCNJ2) is a member of the inward rectifier potassium ion channel family which also includes Kir2.2 and Kir2.3. Kir2.1 is expressed in the membranes of many tissues, including heart, skeletal muscle, kidney and diffusely distributed throughout the brain. Kir2.1 has a role in cardiac excitability and has been shown to have interactions with CLG4, Interleukin 16 and TRAK2. Defects in Kir2.1 are involved with the diseases long QT syndrome type 7 (also known as andersen-Tawil syndrome), short QT syndrome 3, and Familial Atrial Fibrillation 9.

Immunogen:

Synthetic peptide amino acids 390-411 (cytoplasmic C-terminus) of mouse Kir2.1 also known as Inward rectifier potassium channel 2 or subfamily J member 2, Kcnj2 and Irk1, accession number P35561); Rat: 100% identity (22/22 amino acids identical); Human: 90% identity (20/22 amino acids identical)

Cross Reactivity:

No cross-reactivity against Kir2.2 or Kir2.3

Protein Name(s):

Kir2.1 K+ channel

Gene Name(s):

Kcnj2 Irk1

Antibody Registry ID:

Purified: AB_11000720
