Maximum absorption 554 nm; maximum fluorescence 576 nm. The fluorescence is excited most efficiently in the 540 - 565 nm range. This label is related to the dye Rhodamine 6G and can be used with filters used to detect Rhodamine.). This antibody is commonly used in FC, IC, IF, IHC, LCI to detect, localize, or compare expression of the target across samples.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eKey elements and design rationale\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTarget:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stromal interaction molecule 1, GOK (also reported as Stromal interaction molecule 1, GOK).\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunogen\/epitope region:\u003c\/strong\u003e STIM1 expressed on the plasma membrane: Extracellular, N-terminus STIM1 expressed on the ER: Luminal, N-terminus.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHomology note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rat, mouse, bovine and canis - identical (informative for cross-species interpretation).\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies reactivity (as provided):\u003c\/strong\u003e Human, Rat, Mouse.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCited use:\u003c\/strong\u003e FC (literature use does not guarantee performance in every setup).\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLot quality control (as provided):\u003c\/strong\u003e Western blot analysis (unlabeled antibody, #ACC-063), and immunohistochemistry (labeled antibody)..\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeptide confirmation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Confirmed by amino acid analysis and mass spectrometry.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlocking peptide:\u003c\/strong\u003e Available for antigen preadsorption control where appropriate.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese attributes help researchers interpret whether signal reflects the intended target in a given assay and sample context.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eBiological background\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eCytosolic Ca2+ has long been known to act as a key second messenger in many intracellular pathways including synaptic transmission, muscle contraction, hormonal secretion, and cell growth and proliferation.1,2 The mechanism controlling the influx of intracellular Ca2+ either by calcium-release-activated Ca2+ channels (CRAC) or from intracellular stores has lately become of great interest.Recently, several key players of the store-operated complex have been identified.3 The Orai family consists of three members, Orai1-3, and the STIM family, which consists of two members, STIM1 and STIM2. Orai1 (also known as CRACM1) acts as the store-operated calcium channel (SOC) and STIM1 as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ sensor.3,4 The majority of STIM1 appears to be localized intracellularly at the ER membrane while low expression of STIM1 has been detected on the cell surface of several cell types.5 STIM1 has an amino-terminal EF hand Ca2+ binding domain facing the lumen of the ER.6 Upon Ca2+ store depletion, STIM1 molecules are redistributed in punctae underneath the plasma membrane and activate SOCs.Several possible interactions between STIM1 and Orai1 have been suggested. The most simple and cited is a dynamic interaction between the cytosolic C-terminus of STIM1 and the cytoplasmic domain of the Orai1 channel.7-9 STIM1 is assumed to regulate the activity of all known SOCs, including native SOCs.5 Consistent with their important role as calcium sensors within the ER, STIM1 proteins are ubiquitously expressed.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eComparing target expression across perturbations, genotypes, or treatment conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eInterpreting localization shifts alongside pathway or phenotypic readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eUsing orthogonal controls (KO\/KD, peptide competition, isotype concepts) to support conclusions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eImmunohistochemistry (IHC): examine spatial distribution in tissue and relate signal to cell-type composition.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eImmunofluorescence\/ICC: assess subcellular localization and co-localization with markers in cells or sections.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eFlow cytometry (direct\/indirect): quantify target-positive populations and shifts in expression across subsets.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eLive cell imaging (LCI): support extracellular-epitope detection on non-permeabilized cells when appropriate.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterpretation typically benefits from comparing matched sample sets (e.g., treated vs control, WT vs KO\/KD) and using orthogonal readouts where feasible.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eIsoforms and post-translational modifications can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility across samples.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eCross-species signal may depend on epitope conservation; consult the provided homology note when selecting models.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003ePermeabilization, fixation, and antigen retrieval can change accessibility of intracellular vs extracellular epitopes.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eConceptual control: antigen preadsorption (blocking peptide) can help assess signal dependence on the immunogen region.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eProvided control suggestions: Negative control: RIC-001-AO.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eApplication notes: see product-specific dilution\/usage notes and control concepts provided in the dataset.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication abbreviations:\u003c\/strong\u003e CBE- Cell-based ELISA, FC- Flow cytometry, ICC- Immunocytochemistry, IE- Indirect ELISA, IF- Immunofluorescence, IFC- Indirect flow cytometry, IHC- Immunohistochemistry, IP- Immunoprecipitation, LCI- Live cell imaging, N- Neutralization, WB- Western blot. \u003cstrong\u003eSpecies abbreviations:\u003c\/strong\u003e H- Human, M- Mouse, R- Rat.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended controls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blocking peptide: BLP-CC063; Negative control: RIC-001-AO.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - Alomone Labs product page scientific background (as provided in this catalog row) - UniProt Knowledgebase (target-level reference) - NCBI Gene (target-level reference) - General antibody validation principles (KO\/KD, peptide competition, isotype control concepts) --\u003e","brand":"Alomone Labs","offers":[{"title":"50 mcl \/ 1","offer_id":53064818557293,"sku":"ACC-063-AO-50MCL-1","price":797.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/AN-02-on-RBL.png?v=1772460926","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/anti-stim1-extracellular-atto-fluor-550-antibody-bha21300138","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
