Product Name :
TWIK-1 (V322) Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
K+ channels are divided into three subclasses, reflecting the number of transmembrane segments (TMS), which are designated 6TMS, 4TMS and 2TMS. Members of the 4TMS class contain two distinct pore regions, and include TASK, TREK, TRAAK and TWIK. TWIK-1 mRNA is expressed abundantly in brain and at lower levels in lung, kidney and skeletal muscle. The molecular weight of TWIK-1 in mouse brain is 40 kDa under reducing conditions. TWIK-2 shares low sequence homology with other mammalian family group members, and only 34% homology with TWIK-1. Human TWIK-2 is expressed in pancreas, placenta and heart, while mouse TWIK-2 is expressed in liver. TWIK-2 is inhibited by intracellular, but not extracellular, acidification. Alternative Name :
Potassium channel subfamily K member 1; Inward rectifying potassium channel protein TWIK-1; Potassium channel KCNO1; KCNK1; HOHO1; KCNO1; TWIK1 Swiss-Prot :
O00180 Product :
1 mg/ml in DI water. Purification&Purity :
Synthetic peptide TWIK-1 (V322). (Note: the amino acid sequence is proprietary). The purity is > 98%. Storage&Stability :
Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Specificity :
This peptide can be used with studies using BS3370 TWIK-1 (V322) pAb.
