CACNA1B Antibodies

AND CACNA1B ELISA kits, CACNA1B Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect CACNA1B, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with CACNA1B in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop CACNA1B antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to CACNA1B by testing them on tissues known to express CACNA1B positively and negatively. Browse below to find the CACNA1B antibody that suites your experiment. We have 0 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

CACNA1B Overview

Facts about Voltage-dependent N-type calcium channel subunit alpha-1B.

CACNA1B 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Voltage-dependent N-type calcium channel subunit alpha-1B (CACNA1B)

Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. The isoform alpha-1B gives rise to N-type calcium currents.

N-type calcium channels belong to the 'high-voltage activated' (HVA) group and are specifically blocked by omega-conotoxin-GVIA (AC P01522) (AC P01522) (By similarity). They are however insensitive to dihydropyridines (DHP).
