		Technical Data
C1035-26N	Calnexin (CANX, CNX, FLJ26570, Histocompatibility Complex Class I Antigen Binding Protein p88, IP90, P90)

Description:
Calnexin is a calcium-binding protein that interacts with newly synthesized glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. As a chaperone protein, it assists in protein assembly by ensuring that only the properly folded protein is progresses along the secretory pathway. It seems to play a major role in the quality control apparatus of the ER by retaining incorrectly folded proteins.

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:32,000
Western Blot: 0.3-1ug/ml, mouse heart, human brain (cerebellum), NIH3T3 and HeLa lysates on ~100kD bands
Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 3-6ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
