Anti-Voltage Gated Potassium Channel, Kv2.2 Subunit

Product Specifications

CAS Number

9007-83-4

Gene ID

621349

Reactivity

Rat

Immunogen

Peptide from the subunit region of the voltage gated potassium channel, Kv2.2 of rat and Xenopus, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) .

Target

Voltage-gated K+ channels are important determinants of neuronal membrane excitability (Pongs, 1999) . Moreover, differences in K+ channel expression patterns and densities contribute to the variations in action potential waveforms and repetitive firing patterns evident in different neuronal cell types. The delayed rectifier-type (IK) channels (Kv1.5, Kv2.1, and Kv2.2) are expressed on all neuronal somata and proximal dendrites and are also found in a wide variety of non-neuronal cells types including pancreatic islets, alveolar cells and cardiac myocytes (Hwang et al., 1993; Yan et al., 2004; Michaelevski et al., 2003) . Kv2.1 and Kv2.2 form distinct populations of K+ channels and these subunits are thought to be primarily responsible for IK in superior cervical ganglion cells (Blaine and Ribera, 1998; Burger and Ribera, 1996) .
