Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): Calcium/phospholipid-binding protein which promotes membrane fusion and is involved in exocytosis.
Scientific background (datasheet): ANXA7 (Annexin A7), also known as ANX7 or SNX, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ANXA7 gene. Annexin VII is a member of the annexin family of calcium-dependent phospholipid binding proteins. Shirvan et al. (1994) isolated genomic clones of the ANXA7 gene and assigned the gene to 10q21.1-q21.2 by study of somatic cell hybrids and by in situ hybridization. Srivastava et al. (2001) concluded that the ANX7 gene exhibits many biologic and genetic properties expected of a tumor suppressor gene and may play a role in prostate cancer progression. Caohuy et al. (1996) present experimental evidence, based on studies of recombinant human ANXA7 and isolated bovine chromaffin cells, that ANXA7 is a Ca (2+)-dependent GTP binding protein. ANXA7 was active in a chromaffin granule aggregation assays in the presence of Ca (2+) and GTP, and was deactivated upon GTP hydrolysis.
Cellular localization (datasheet): Secreted .
Tissue details (datasheet): Isoform 1 is expressed in brain, heart and skeletal muscle. Isoform 2 is more abundant in liver, lung, kidney, spleen, fibroblasts and placenta. .
Sequence similarities (datasheet): Belongs to the annexin family.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Calcium Channels,Calcium Signaling,Cell Adhesion,Cytoskeleton/ECM,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.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Visualize subcellular localization and co-localization patterns; consider fixation/permeabilization compatibility and controls.
- 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.
