Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 6 (gene TRPV6) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 87.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 83 kDa.
TRPV6 is a highly calcium-selective channel that provides the entry route for calcium absorption across epithelia, especially in the intestine and placenta. It is activated by low intracellular calcium and inactivated by calcium and calmodulin feedback, making it a key player in whole-body calcium balance; it is also studied in several epithelial cancers.

Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 6 in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed at high levels in the gastrointestinal tract, including esophagus, stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon, and in pancreas, placenta, prostate and salivary gland. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
