Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Calpain 1 antibody (AB39170)
ICC/IF image of ab39170 stained MCF-7 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 (ab39170, 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.

Biological function summary
Calpain 1 participates in cellular functions such as signal transduction cell cycle progression and apoptosis. It is not part of a complex but operates independently to modulate cellular responses by processing different target proteins. Calpain protein activity impacts cytoskeletal remodeling and membrane repair important processes in cell mobility and stability. Through its proteolytic actions calpain 1 influences neural plasticity and muscle function demonstrating its broad biological significance.
Pathways
Calpain 1 functions within the calcium signaling and apoptotic pathways highlighting its role in regulating cellular survival and death. Calcium influx triggers calpain activity linking it to proteins such as calmodulin and calcineurin that also respond to calcium signals. Calpain-1 modulates apoptosis by targeting Bcl-2 family proteins influencing cell fate during stress responses. The calpain assay measures its activity providing insights into its contribution to these vital pathways.
