Pannexin 2 / PerCP / S121A-31
Product Details
| Description | Mouse monoclonal to Pannexin 2 (PerCP). Gap junctions are formed by a hexameric group of proteins called connexions for the transport of low molecular weight proteins from cell to cell. Connexins, which are present in all metazoan organisms, serve diverse functions ranging from control of cell growth and differentiation to electric conduction in excitable tissues. Several mammalian cells with malignant phenotypes exhibit decreased connexin expression and gap junction communication. The pannexin gene family encodes a second class of putative gap junction proteins. Pannexins are highly conserved in invertebrates and mammals, indicating the importance of their gap junctional coupling function. Mammalian Pannexin-1 and Pannexin-3 are closely related, while Pannexin-2 is more distantly related. Pannexin-2 is a transmembrane protein expressed in the central nervous system that is unable to assemble in homomeric channels but forms heteromeric channels with Pannexin-1.. | |

About Pannexin 2
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the innexin family. Innexin family members are the structural components of gap junctions. This protein and pannexin 1 are abundantly expressed in central nervous system (CNS) and are coexpressed in various neuronal populations. Studies in Xenopus oocytes suggest that this protein alone and in combination with pannexin 1 may form cell type-specific gap junctions with distinct properties. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2009]

About PerCP
Peridinin-Chlorophyll-Protein (PerCP) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein isolated from algae that can be excited by the 488 nm blue laser and captured with a 670/30 nm bandpass filter. PerCP exhibits a large Stokes' Shift, with an excitation peak at 482 nm and an emission peak at 675 nm. PerCP is was historically used in flow cytometry, however it is highly susceptible to photobleaching and has poor stability. Alternatives like BB700, NovaFluor Blue 690 or PerCP-eFluor™ 710 are preferred. PerCP is a generic dye that has no sole manufacturer.
