MA3-942 detects the 80 kDa subunit of m-calpain in human platelets and erythrocytes, bovine platelets, heart and skeletal muscle, rat myoblasts, kidney, liver and spleen, pig cultured cells, and rabbit samples. This antibody does not cross-react with mu-calpain, n-calpain, calmodulin or calpastatin.
MA3-942 has been successfully used in Western blot, IF, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects an ~80 kDa protein representing m-calpain in bovine platelets. Immunocytochemical staining of m-calpain in LLC-PK1 cells with MA3-942 results in diffuse cytoplasmic staining. This product has not been shown to be effective in immunoprecipitation experiments.
The MA3-942 antigen is purified bovine skeletal muscle 80 kDa subunit of m-calpain. This antibody recognizes an epitope between amino acids 502-699 (domain III/IV) of human calpain.
Mu-Calpain, also known as Calpain-I, and m-calpain, also known as Calpain-II, are intracellular, calcium-dependent cysteine proteases. Mu-calpain has a micromolar sensitivity (thus the mu-) as compared to the millimolar calcium sensitivity of m-calpain.
