S100 Calcium Binding Protein (S100-beta, Calcium Binding Protein B1) |
|
|
Description: Protein S100 beta belongs to the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and are involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. The 2 subunits of S100 protein are the products of separate genes. The beta subunit is present in all S100 positive cells and tumors whereas the alpha subunit is detectable only in specific tissues such as heart, skeletal muscle and brain. The S100 protein is a homodimer composed of two alpha subunits (S100a) or two beta subunits (S100b) or as a heterodimer with one alpha and beta subunit (S100ab or S100ao). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 2ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (formalin-fixed and paraffin): 1-2ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |
