Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): Key regulator of striated muscle performance by acting as the major Ca (2+) ATPase responsible for the reuptake of cytosolic Ca (2+) into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the translocation of calcium from the cytosol to the sarcoplasmic reticulum lumen. Contributes to calcium sequestration involved in muscular excitation/contraction.
Scientific background (datasheet): SERCA1 (SARCOPLASMIC RETICULUM Ca (2+)-ATPase 1), also called ATP2A1, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ATP2A1 gene. This gene encodes one of the SERCA Ca (2+)-ATPases, which are intracellular pumps located in the sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticula of muscle cells. The SERCA1 gene is mapped on 16p11.2. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the translocation of calcium from the cytosol to the sarcoplasmic reticulum lumen, and is involved in muscular excitation and contraction. Zhang et al. (1995)determined that the human ATP2A1 gene is 26 kb long and contains 23 exons, 1 of which can be alternatively spliced.Overexpression of S1T, but not full-length SERCA1, induced ER stress in HeLa cells and amplified ER stress through the PERK (EIF2AK3)-EIF2A -ATF4 -CHOP (DDIT3) pathway. Mutations in this gene cause some autosomal recessive forms of Brody disease, characterized by increasing impairment of muscular relaxation during exercise.
Cellular localization (datasheet): Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue details (datasheet): Skeletal muscle, fast twitch muscle (type II) fibers.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Atherosclerosis,ATPases,Calcium Channels,Calcium Signaling,Cancer,Cardiovascular,Heart Disease,Metabolism,Organelles,Plasma Membrane,Signal Transduction,Signaling Pathway,Subcellular Markers,Tags & Cell Markers.
- 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.
