Troponin I, Cardiac, aa87-91 (cTnI, CMH7, Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy 7, MGC116817, TNNC1, Troponin I Type 3 Cardiac, TNNI3) (HRP)

Troponin, working in conjunction with tropomyosin, functions as a molecular switch, regulating muscle contraction in response to changes in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Troponin consists of three subunits, the Ca2+-binding subunit troponin C (TnC), the tropomyosin-binding subunit troponin T (TnT), and the inhibitory subunit troponin I (TnI). Troponin I binds to actin in thin myofilaments to hold the actin-tropomyosin complex in place, because of which myosin cannot bind to actin in relaxed muscle. When Calcium binds to the Troponin C it causes certain confomational changes which leads to dislocation of troponin I. The letter “I” is given due to its inhibitory character.||The tissue specific subtypes are:|Slow-twitch skeletal muscle isoform troponin I, TNNI1 (1q31.3, 191042)|Fast-twitch skeletal muscle isoform troponin I, TNNI2 (11p15.5, 191043)|Cardiac troponin I, TNNI3 (19q13.4, 191044)||Applications: |Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunoaffinity Purification. Other applications not tested.||Recommended Dilutions:|Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.||Hybridoma: |SP2/0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from Balb/c mice. ||Storage and Stability:|Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Note: Sodium azide is a potent inhibitor of peroxidase and should not be added to HRP conjugates. |For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.||Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
