Anti-CANX antibody produced in rabbit, 1 X 100 µL (HPA009433-100UL)

CANX (calnexin) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone, which is a homolog of calreticulin (Crt). It is an ER-membrane protein with a molecular weight of 67kDa. Its N and P domains face the ER lumen and its C-terminal faces the cytoplasmic region. It is a type I transmembrane protein. Cleavage of this protein results in separation of membrane and cytosolic regions, giving rise to a soluble form found in placenta. All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information. Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals. Calnexin precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST) CANX (calnexin) is a chaperone protein, which controls protein folding and quality control. It is specific to proteins composed of monoglucosylated oligosaccharides. It is also responsible for the assembly of viral proteins. The expression of this protein reduces with age, for instance oxidative stress-induced expression in human diploid fibroblasts (HDF) in older population. Thus, it might be involved in conferring protection to cells in various age-related disorders. CANX is responsible for glycan-independent interaction and retention of mutated Gas3/PMP22 (growth arrest-specific protein 3/peripheral myelin protein 22) proteins involved in Charcot-Marie-Tooth 1A and Dejerine Sottas syndrome. Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: •IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. •Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
