The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews Notes WB Application notes WB: Use at a concentration of 1-5 µg/ml. This antibody has only been tested in WB against the recombinant fragment used as immunogen. We have no data on the detection of endogenous protein. 1 Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Target Function This protein mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which sodium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. It is a tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channel isoform. Also involved, with the contribution of the receptor tyrosine kinase NTRK2, in rapid BDNF-evoked neuronal depolarization. Tissue specificity Expressed in the dorsal root ganglia and trigeminal ganglia, olfactory bulb, hippocampus, cerebellar cortex, spinal cord, spleen, small intestine and placenta. Involvement in disease Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, 7 Episodic pain syndrome, familial, 3 Sequence similarities Belongs to the sodium channel (TC 1.A.1.10) family. Nav1.9/SCN11A subfamily. Domain The sequence contains 4 internal repeats, each with 5 hydrophobic segments (S1,S2,S3,S5,S6) and one positively charged segment (S4). Segments S4 are probably the voltage-sensors and are characterized by a series of positively charged amino acids at every third position. Post-translational modifications Phosphorylation at Ser-1341 by PKC in a highly conserved cytoplasmic loop slows inactivation of the sodium channel and reduces peak sodium currents.
