GeneID: 117059 Rat CALB2

GeneID: 12308 Mouse CALB2

GeneID: 794 Human CALB2

Gene Symbol CALB2
Gene Full Name calbindin 2
Background This gene encodes an intracellular calcium-binding protein belonging to the troponin C superfamily. Members of this protein family have six EF-hand domains which bind calcium. This protein plays a role in diverse cellular functions, including message targeting and intracellular calcium buffering. It also functions as a modulator of neuronal excitability, and is a diagnostic marker for some human diseases, including Hirschsprung disease and some cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
Function Calretinin is a calcium-binding protein which is abundant in auditory neurons. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 32 kDa

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] WB image

    Western blot: 15 µg of Rat brain lysate stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] at 1:2500 dilution.

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] ICC/IF image

    Immunocytochemistry: Rat mixed neuron / glial cultures stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] (red) at 1:2000, and co-stained with chicken polyclonal antibody to Vimentin (green). Calretinin is prominently expressed in small number of interneurons, while astrocytes and fibroblasts were visualized with the vimentin antibody.

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] IHC-Fr image

    Immunohistochemistry: Frozen section of Rat hippocampus stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] (green) at 1:2000 dilution and costained with ARG10686 anti-Parvalbumin antibody (red) at 1:1000 dilution. DAPI (blue) for nuclear staining. (Sample preparation: Following transcardial perfusion of Rat with 4% paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45 µM, and free-floating sections were stained with above antibodies.)

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] IHC-Fr image

    Immunohistochemistry: Frozen sections of adult Rat cortical (45 µM; fixed by transcardial perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde) was stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] at 1:1000 (red) and co-stained with chicken polyclonal antibody to calbinidin (green). In the motor cortex, calretinin is expressed in a small population of interneurons that do not express calbindin. Because each antibody specifically labels a different population of cells exclusively, the cells are either stained with red, or green.

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] WB image

    Western blot: Rat brain, pavalbumin, calretinin, and calbindin recombinant proteins was stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] at 1:5000 dilution.

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] WB image

    Western blot: Rat brain, Rat spinal cord, Mouse brain, Mouse spinal cord and Cow spinal cord lysates stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] (green) at 1:2000 dilution.

  • ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] IHC-Fr image

    Immunohistochemistry: Frozen sections of adult Mouse brain hippocampal (45 µM; fixed by transcardial perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde) was stained with ARG10703 anti-Calretinin antibody [6A9] at 1:1000 (red) and co-stained with antibody to calbinidin (green). In the stratum radiatum of CA1 region, calretinin expresses in a small number of interneurons that do not express calbindin. As a result, our antibodies label different neurons in either red or green. Insets are high-magnification images of the boxed area in each picture. Blue is a hoechst DNA staining.
