RCAN1 Antibody [FITC]

This conjugate is made on demand. Actual recovery may vary from the stated volume of this product. The volume will be greater than or equal to the unit size stated on the datasheet.

RCAN1 (regulator of calcineurin 1) inhibits the calcineurin-dependent transcriptional responses by binding to catalytic domain of calcineurin 1, a protein phosphatase involved in muscle cell differentiation/growth, T cell activation and new memory generation. Unphosphorylated RCAN1 binds/inhibits calcineurin, while RCAN1 phosphorylation at conserved serine residues interefere with this binding, resulting in increased calcineurin activity. RCAN1 over-expression mediated reduction in calcineurin activity alters the phosphorylation/activity of several calcineurin targets such as Munc18, dynamin 1, amphiphysin 1/2 and synaptojanin which are involved in exocytosis and vesicle recycling. Chronic alterations in calcineurin lead to transcriptional effects via calcineurin/NFAT signalling that regulates pre-synaptic neurotransmitter release. RCAN1 also affect exocytosis and quantal release kinetics via direct calcineurin independent mechanisms. RCAN1 is widely expressed in normal tissues/cell types with highest expression in neurons, and RCAN1 levels elevates in Down syndrome fetuses as well as Alzheimer patients, whereas, in Huntington disease RCAN1 - expression is found reduced. RCAN1 has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including oxidative stress, angiogenesis, mitochondrial function, immune responses and inflammation.
