CNTNAP1 Antibody

CNTNAP1 was initially identified as a 190-kD protein associated with the contactin-PTPRZ1 complex. The 1,384-amino acid protein, also designated p190 or CASPR for 'contactin-associated protein, ' includes an extracellular domain with several putative protein-protein interaction domains, a putative transmembrane domain, and a 74-amino acid cytoplasmic domain. The architecture of its extracellular domain is similar to that of neurexins, and this protein may be the signaling subunit of contactin, enabling recruitment and activation of intracellular signaling pathways in neurons.The gene product was initially identified as a 190-kD protein associated with the contactin-PTPRZ1 complex. The 1,381-amino acid protein, also designated p190 or CASPR for 'contactin-associated protein, ' includes an extracellular domain with several putative protein-protein interaction domains, a putative transmembrane domain, and a 74-amino acid cytoplasmic domain. Northern blot analysis showed that the gene is transcribed predominantly in brain as a transcript of 6.2 kb, with weak expression in several other tissues tested. The architecture of its extracellular domain is similar to that of neurexins, and this protein may be the signaling subunit of contactin, enabling recruitment and activation of intracellular signaling pathways in neurons.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store CNTNAP1 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

CNTNAP1 antibody can be used for detection of CNTNAP1 by ELISA at 1:1562500. CNTNAP1 antibody can be used for detection of CNTNAP1 by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
