Anti-Potassium Channel K_IR3.2 (GIRK2) antibody produced in rabbit

G protein-activated inward rectifier potassium channel 2 (GIRK2) is localized on the plasma membrane. It is expressed majorly in the brain and to some extent in the pancreas. The GIRK2 gene is mapped to human chromosome 21q22.13. Structurally, GIRK2 exists as a tetramer and comprises a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain.

GST fusion protein with sequence corresponding to residues 374-414 of mouse K_IR3.2 (GIRK2). Sequence homology is 40/41, 39/41, and 37/41 residues identical in rat, golden hamster, and human, respectively.

Anti-Potassium Channel KIR3.2 (GIRK2) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:

• immunoblotting
• immunofluorescence
• immunocytochemistry

Anti-Potassium Channel KIR3.2 (GIRK2) recognizesKIR3.2 (GIRK2).

G protein-activated inward rectifier potassium channel 2,(GIRK2) plays a key role in γ-aminobutyric acid-ergic (GABAergic), dopaminergic, cholinergic, and glutamatergic synapses. It also regulates neuronal excitability. GIRK2 through G protein-coupled receptor stimulation modulates neuronal circuit activity and heart rate in cardiac cells. Deletion of the GIRK2 gene in mice may lead to an anxiety-like phenotype and a depression-resistant behavior.
