| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Calcineurin is a major soluble calmodulin-binding protein in the brain. It stimulates the expression of the surface molecules CD83, CD80, CD86, CD40 and HLA-DR by promoting secretion of inflammatory cytokines IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β by human PBMC-derived dendritic cells. It plays an important role in signal transduction, activation of T cell. Calcineurin is an excellent marker enzyme for the detection of neuronal activity and synaptic plasticity after brain damage. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | In immunoblotting, the product recognizes an epitope located on the α-subunit of calcineurin (61 kDa, also called calcineurin A) and does not cross-react with the β-subunit. |

| General description: | Calcineurin (CaN)(heterodimeric enzyme) is a Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-stimulated protein phosphatase 3 (PPP3) consisting of a catalytic A subunit (CnA) and a Ca2+-binding regulatory B subunit (CnB). The calcium-binding regulatory subunit (calcineurin B) is coded by the PPP3R1 gene located on human chromosome 2. Protein phosphatase 3, regulatory subunit B, α (PPP3R1) is also known as CALN, CCN1, CNA1, CALNA, PPP2B and CALNA1. The regulatory subunit calcineurin B is widely expressed in brain while the catalytic subunit (calcineurin A) is abundantly expressed in Hassall′s corpuscles, localized in the thymic medulla and represents the terminal stages of thymic medullary epithelium. |
| General description: | Monoclonal Anti-Calcineurin (α-subunit) (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the CN-A1 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from immunized BALB/c mice. |
