General description
Monoclonal Anti-Parvalbumin (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma PARV-19 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with purified frog muscle parvalbumin. Parvalbumin (PV) is a member of the family of Ca2+-binding molecules. It carries three helix-loop-helix EF-hand Ca2+ binding motifs, with the two C-terminal motifs.
Specificity
Monoclonal Anti-Parvalbumin recognizes parvalbumin in a Ca2+ -ion dependent manner
Immunogen
purified frog muscle parvalbumin. The isotype is determined by ELISA using Mouse Monoclonal Antibody Isotyping Reagents (Sigma ISO-2).
Application
Anti-Parvalbumin antibody, Mouse monoclonal has been used in:
- immunohistochemistry
- immunofluorescence staining
- immunolabeling
- to label brain slices for perineuronal net staining
- enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
- immunocytochemistry
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Western Blotting (1 paper)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Ca2+ participates in cell motility, release of neurotransmitters, membrane permeability, excitation−contraction of muscles, cell secretory procedures, and transmission of nerve impulses. Intracellular Ca2+ exchangers are essential to modulate these processes efficiently. Parvalbumin (PV), a calcium-binding protein, can regulate the intracellular calcium dynamics in neurons. Hence it may have an impact on facilitation and depression at synapses. Interestingly, PV deficiency alters neuronal activity, a key mechanism leading to epileptic seizures or Parkinson.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
Storage and Stability
For extended storage, freeze at –20 °C in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free†freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
