Anti-Kv1.3 K+ Channel Antibody

Kv1.3 K+ channel (also known KCNA3) is a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, shaker-related subfamily. This protein, encoded by the KCNA3 gene in human, is an efficient channel blocker. Kv1.3 K+ channel includes a shaker-type repeat in the fourth segment of a six membrane-spanning domains. Kv1.3 K+ channel plays a role in the repolarization of nerve cells after an action potential. It is also widely expressed on T and B lymphocytes'membranes (including inner mitochondrial membrane) and has an important function in T-cell activation, especially in the regulation of chronically activated effector memory T-cell immune responses (Chiang et al., 2017) . It has been demonstrated that effector memory T-cells highly expressing Kv1.3 K+ channel are predominantely present in patient with Musltiple Sclerosis lesion and children with type-1 diabetes mellitus (Beeton et al., 2006) .

Our Anti-Kv1.3 K+ channel mouse monoclonal primary antibody from NeuroMab is produced in-house from hybridoma clone L23/27. It is KO validated, detects human, mouse, and rat Kv1.3 K+ channel, and is purified by protein a chromatography. It is great for use in WB, IHC, ICC, IP, ELISA.

Aliquot and store at ≤ -20°C for long term storage. For short term storage, store at 2-8°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the vial prior to removing the cap.

Each new lot of antibody is quality control tested by western blot on rat whole brain lysate and confirmed to stain the expected molecular weight band.
