Anti-TRPM8 (Extracellular region) Antibody

DETAILS

Form: Antigen Affinity Purified
Gene: TRPM8
Host: Mouse
Rrid: AB_3068514
Type: Primary Antibody
Clone: M572
Buffer: PBS + 1 mg/ml BSA, 0.05% NaN3 and 50% glycerol
Target: TRPM8 (Extracellular region)
Isotype: IgG1
Storage: Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.
Shipping: Blue Ice
Synonyms: LTrpC6, TRPp8, TRP, TRPM8,
Clonality: Mouse Monoclonal
Immunogen: Clone M572 was generated from TRPM8 synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier) corresponding to amino acids in the extracellular region of human TRPM8. This site is well conserved in rat and mouse TRPM8, but has low homology to other TRPM family members.
Expiration: After date of receipt, stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.
Specificity: This antibody detects a 130 kDa* protein on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells. The antibody is also recommended for immunocytochemical labeling of cells.
Applications: WB, ICC
Conjugate Exem: Unconjugated
Physical State: Liquid
Quality Control: Western blots performed on each lot.

Target Description: The Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin (TRPM) subfamily of cation-permeable channels is ubiquitous in mammalian tissues. This family includes TRPM1-8. In addition to acting as a calcium-permeant channel, some TRPM family members, TRPM6 and TRPM7, possess serine/threonine kinase activity and autophosphorylation. TRPM8 is thermoactivated at mildly cold temperatures (>25oC), and can also be activated by compounds that cause a cooling sensation, such as menthol and icilin. TRPM8 is expressed in trigeminal and dorsal root ganglia neurons where it confers sensitivity to cold in the somatosensory system. In vascular smooth muscle, TRPM8 may alter blood flow by constricting or enlarging blood vessels. TRPM8 is also expressed in normal prostate epithelial cells, as well as overexpressed in several primary tumors including colon, lung, skin, breast, and prostate cancers.
