Recombinant full-length human protein (CNN1/832) and crude human uterus extract (CALP) were used as the immunogen for the Calponin antibody cocktail.

Human CNN1 / Calponin

• IHC
• IHC - Paraffin (0.5 - 1 µg/ml)
• Immunofluorescence (1 - 2 µg/ml)
• Flow Cytometry (0.5 - 1 µg/10E6 cells)

The applications listed have been tested for the unmodified form of this product. Other forms have not been tested. Multiple isoelectric variants of calponin have been identified, however only two molecular weight isoforms exist. a 34kDa form and a 29kDa form. Expression of the 29kDa form, I-calponin, is primarily restricted to muscle of the urogenital tract, whereas the higher molecular weight variant has been demonstrated in vascular and visceral smooth muscle. In Western blotting, this mAb reacts with only the 34kDa form of calponin in extracts of human aortic medial smooth muscle and is unreactive with fibroblast extracts of cultivated human foreskin. Calponin is a calmodulin, F-actin and tropomyosin binding protein, which is thought to be involved in the regulation of smooth muscle contraction. Calponin expression is restricted to smooth muscle cells and has been shown to be a marker of the differentiated (contractile) phenotype of developing smooth muscle. Optimal dilution of the Calponin antibody cocktail should be determined by the researcher. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min.
