Application notes
(see key)
|
Recommended dilutions ICC/IF: Use at a concentration of 1 - 5 µg/ml. WB: 1/1000 (colorimetric) - 1/5000 (chemiluminescent). Detects bands of approximately 73 and 68 kDa and a series of further cleaved forms when used against the reduced protein. Dilution optimised using Chromogenic detection.
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance

Calpain proteinases are defined currently as papain like neutral proteases that are calcium activated. Calpains 1 and 2 are composed of a large subunit, which is proteolytically active, and a small subunit (also called calpain 4), or enhancer protein, that is not proteolytically active. The other calpain proteins identified to date are not known to require a small subunit. Domains in the large subunit include the amino terminal domain I, the proteinase domain II, domain III, and the EF hand domain IV (Domain T in calpains 5 & 6).
Calpain 5, also known as the human orthologue of TRA3, a C. elegans protein involved in sex determination, is located on chromosome 11 in humans, near calpain 1. Calpain 5 is an intracellular, calcium dependent cysteine protease. Calpain 5 domain T does not have the standard calpain EF hand domain for binding calcium, making it unclear whether it is calcium regulated. It is also unclear if calpain 5 plays any role in mammalian sex determination, since the enzyme is found in colon, kidney, liver and trachea and other tissues, as well as testis.
ab28280 does not recognize amino-processed Calpain 5, and can be used to discriminate between latent and amino-processed forms. ab28280 will also bind to the non-reduced protein, and thus may have application for immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence-Calpain 5 antibody - Aminoterminal end domain I(ab28280)
ICC/IF image of ab28280 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab28280, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
