| Applications: | WB |
| Species Reactivity: | Human |
| Isotype: | Rabbit Ig |
| Purification: | Affinity Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody |
| Description: | This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin,calcitonin gene-related peptide and katacalcin by tissue-specificalternative RNA splicing of the gene transcripts and cleavage ofinactive precursor proteins. Calcitonin is involved in calciumregulation and acts to regulate phosphorus metabolism. Calcitoningene-related peptide functions as a vasodilator while katacalcin isa calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encodingdifferent isoforms have been found for this gene. |
| Further Information: | This CALCA/CT antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 104-132 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human CALCA/CT. |
| Synonym: | Calcitonin, Calcitonin, Katacalcin, Calcitonin carboxyl-terminal peptide, CCP, PDN-21, CALCA, CALC1 |
| Ascension Number: | P01258 |

| Shipping Conditions: | Ship on cold packs |
| Storage: | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8 C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20 C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Usage: | Research use only |
