| Target/Specificity | This ZACN antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 331-360 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human ZACN. |
| Dilution | IHC-P~~1:50~100 WB~~1:1000 E~~Use at an assay dependent concentration. |
| Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
| 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. |
| Precautions | ZACN Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | ZACN (HGNC:29504) |
|---|---|
| Function | Ligand-gated cation channel that allows the movement of sodium and potassium monoatomic cations across cell membranes when activated by zinc (Zn2+), copper (Cu2+), and changes in pH (PubMed:26872532). Could also transport cesium (PubMed:26872532). |
| Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
| Tissue Location | Detected in pancreas, brain, liver, placenta, trachea, kidney, spinal cord, stomach and fetal brain. In the adult brain region expression is detected in the hippocampus, striatum, amygdala and thalamus. |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
