Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): May associate with CD21. May regulate the release of Ca (2+) from intracellular stores.
Scientific background (datasheet): Annexin A6 (ANXA6) is a member of a family of proteins that bind membrane or cytoskeleton in a Ca (2+)-dependent manner. These proteins are characterized by homologous amino acid sequences that are present in multiple copies in each protein. ANXA6 gene is assigned to 5q32-q34 by use of a cDNA clone to probe genomic DNA from rodent-human somatic cell hybrids and for in situ hybridization.The ANX6 gene is approximately 60 kb long and contains 26 exons. The genomic sequence at the 3-prime end does not contain a canonical polyadenylylation signal.Ca (2+)-dependent binding between CRHSP28 and ANXA6 is required for acinar cell membrane trafficking events and digestive enzyme secretion
Cellular localization (datasheet): Cytoplasm . Melanosome . Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV.
Sequence similarities (datasheet): Belongs to the annexin family.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Signal Transduction,Signaling Pathway.
- Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
- Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
- ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
- Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.
As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.
