Anti-S100 α/beta Antibody

Small calcium binding protein that plays important roles in several biological processes such as Ca(2+) homeostasis, chondrocyte biology and cardiomyocyte regulation (PubMed:12804600). In response to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) levels, binds calcium which triggers conformational changes (PubMed:23351007). These changes allow interactions with specific target proteins and modulate their activity (PubMed:22399290). Regulates a network in cardiomyocytes controlling sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) cycling and mitochondrial function through interaction with the ryanodine receptors RYR1 and RYR2, sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase/ATP2A2 and mitochondrial F1-ATPase (PubMed:12804600). Facilitates diastolic Ca(2+) dissociation and myofilament mechanics in order to improve relaxation during diastole (PubMed:11717446). {PubMed:11717446, PubMed:12804600, PubMed:22399290, PubMed:23351007}.

These antibodies may be used in ELISA and Western blot (human brain): 56203, 56204, and 56206 may be used to affinity-purify S-100.Recommended pairs for sandwich ELISA: Capture Detect 56203 56204 56206 56204
