GeneID: 19293 Mouse PVALB

GeneID: 25269 Rat PVALB

GeneID: 5816 Human PVALB

Gene Symbol PVALB
Gene Full Name parvalbumin
Background The protein encoded by this gene is a high affinity calcium ion-binding protein that is structurally and functionally similar to calmodulin and troponin C. The encoded protein is thought to be involved in muscle relaxation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Function In muscle, parvalbumin is thought to be involved in relaxation after contraction. It binds two calcium ions.
Calculated MW 12 kDa
PTM Acetylation, Phosphoprotein

    Immunocytochemistry: Adult Rat cerebellum floating section was stained with ARG10725 anti-Parvalbumin antibody [3C9] at 1:1000 (green). Parvalbumin is prominently expressed in the dendrites and perikarya of Purkinje cells and some interneurons in the molecular layer. Blue is a DNA stain.

    Immunohistochemistry: Frozen section of Rat cerebellum stained with ARG10725 anti-Parvalbumin antibody [3C9] (green) at 1:1000 dilution and costained with Chicken pAb to calbindin (red) at 1:2000 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.)

    Most Purkinje cells coexpress both parvalbumin and calbindin and so appear yellow, whereas basket, stellate and Golgi cells express parvalbumin only and so appear green.

    Western blot: Rat skeletal muscle lysate (left) and His-tagged recombinant proteins (right): 1) parvalbumin, 2) calretinin, and 3) calbindin. Blots were stained with ARG10725 anti-Parvalbumin antibody [3C9] at 1:1000. In  skeletal muscle lysates, this antibody recognizes a band at 12 kDa which represents parvalbumin. It reacts to recombinant parvalbumin only, not the other calcium-binding proteins listed. Note, this antibody does not recognize parvabumin in Rat or mouse brain lysates on western blots. Protein from Rat skeletal muscle lysates were transferred to PVDF membrane.
