Anti-RYR2 antibody produced in rabbit

General description

RYR2 (ryanodine receptor 2) is an intracellular Ca²⁺ release channel present on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR).

RYR2 gene is located at the human chromosome location 1q43. It is majorly expressed in the brain and heart.

Immunogen

Ryanodine receptor 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

RYR2 (ryanodine receptor 2) provides guidance to the release and transport of Ca²⁺ from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) to the cytoplasm during cardiac muscle excitation-contraction (EC) coupling. Protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylated RYR2 separates (FKBP12.6) to regulate the channel open probability (Po). During the process, a small portion of Ca²⁺ enter into the cell through the L-type Ca²⁺ channel, which further activates the RyR2 channel upon membrane depolarization. The activated RyR2 channel releases a large amount of Ca²⁺ from the SR and subsequent muscle contraction. Missense mutations in this gene cause Kazakh idiopathic ventricular tachycardia and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Linkage
