CKM Antibody

CKM is a cytoplasmic enzyme involved in energy homeostasis and is an important serum marker for myocardial infarction. The encoded protein reversibly catalyzes the transfer of phosphate between ATP and various phosphogens such as creatine phosphate. It acts as a homodimer in striated muscle as well as in other tissues, and as a heterodimer with a similar brain isozyme in heart. CKM is a member of the ATP: guanido phosphotransferase protein family.The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic enzyme involved in energy homeostasis and is an important serum marker for myocardial infarction.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store CKM antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

CKM antibody can be used for detection of CKM by ELISA at 1:62500. CKM antibody can be used for detection of CKM by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
