Cat. No. 214 009 |
50 µg purified recombinant IgY, lyophilized. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use. Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze! |
Applications | |
Clone | Ch351C10 |
Subtype | IgY (λ light chain) |
Immunogen | Full-length recombinant human Calbindin D28k protein (UniProt Id: P05937) |
Reactivity |
Reacts with: human (P05937), rat (P07171), mouse (P12658), zebrafish, grashopper. Other species not tested yet. |
Matching control protein/peptide | 214-0P |
Remarks |
This antibody is a chimeric antibody based on the monoclonal mouse antibody 351C10. The constant regions of the heavy and light chains have been replaced by chicken specific sequences. The antibody can therefore be used with standard anti-chicken secondary reagents. The antibody has been expressed in mammalian cells. |

Calbindin D28k (CALB1, D28K or CAB27) and Calretinin (Calbindin D29k) are members of the EF-hand calcium-binding protein family, playing essential roles in intracellular calcium homeostasis, neuroprotection, and signal transduction (1). Calbindin D28k is widely expressed in tissues that experience high calcium influx, such as the brain, sensory organs, endocrine tissues, and the enteric nervous system (ENS). In the central nervous system (CNS), Calbindin D28k is an important marker for specific neuronal populations, particularly in Purkinje cells of the cerebellum and GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons of the cortex (2). Outside the CNS, Calbindin D28k plays crucial roles in non-neuronal tissues. In the retina, it contributes to photoreceptor function and calcium signaling (3). In the pancreas, it is present in α- and β-cells (4). Additionally, it was reported that 31% of myenteric neurons and up to 95% of submucosal neurons in the human ENS express calbindin, suggesting its involvement in both motor and secretory functions (5).
