Background

CHRNA, also termed ACHRA, is mapped on 2q24-q32.This gene encodes the alpha subunit of the muscle acetylcholine receptor, which is the main target of pathogenic autoantibodies in autoimmune myasthenia gravis. The protein-coding sequence of the human alpha subu gene is divided into 9 exons that correspond to different structural and functional domains of the precursor molecule.

Synonyms

Acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha;CHRNA1;ACHRA, CHNRA;

Gene Name

Acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha

UniProt

P02708

Host

Rabbit

Reactivity

Human,Mouse,Rat

Cross Reactivity

No cross-reactivity with other proteins

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor alpha 1, identical to the related rat sequence, different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Isoform 1 is only expressed in skeletal muscle. Isoform 2 is constitutively expressed in skeletal muscle, brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung and thymus.

Applications

WB

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.

Storage Conditions

Store at -20℃ for one year from date of receipt. After reconstitution, at 4℃ for one month. It can also be aliquotted and stored frozen at -20℃ for six months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Fragment

Rabbit IgG
