Anti-Calbindin 2 / CALB2 / Calretinin, clone CLRT-1

0.2 mg/ml in 1X PBS with 0.1 mg/ml BSA (US sourced) and 0.05% sodium azide. 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. Calretinin/Calbindin 2 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. [RefSeq] Protein function: Calretinin is a calcium-binding protein which is abundant in auditory neurons. [The UniProt Consortium]
