Scientific Data
Detection of Human/Mouse/Rat Parvalbumin alpha by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of human, mouse, and rat brain tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Parvalbumin a Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5058) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for Parvalbumin a at approximately 12 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.
Parvalbumin alpha in Human Brain. Parvalbumin a was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human brain (cortex) using 5 µg/mL Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Parvalbumin a Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5058) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Detection of Rat Parvalbumin alpha by Simple WesternTM. Simple Western lane view shows lysates of rat brain tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for Parvalbumin a at approximately 15 kDa (as indicated) using 50 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Parvalbumin a Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5058) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.
Detection of Human and Mouse Parvalbumin alpha by Simple WesternTM. Simple Western lane view shows lysates of mouse brain (cortex) and human brain (cerebellum), loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for Parvalbumin a at approximately 14 and 17 kDa (as indicated) using 50 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Parvalbumin a Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5058) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Background: Parvalbumin alpha
Parvalbumin (Parvalbumin alpha ) is a 12 kDa member of the parvalbumin family of Ca++-binding proteins. In human, it is expressed in intrafusal muscle fibers, plus GABAergic interneurons and cerebellar Purkinje and basket cells. It presumably acts as a Ca++ buffer that shortens the duration of fiber contraction. Human Parvalbumin is 110 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains two EF-hand domains (aa 39-74 and 78-110) that bind calcium. There are three potential isoform variants. One shows an alternate start site at Met33, a second shows a six aa substitution for the C-terminal nine amino acids and a third shows a deletion of Gly99-Val100. Human Parvalbumin alpha is 51% aa identical to human Parvalbumin beta and is 87% plus 92% aa identical to mouse and rat Parvalbumin, respectively.
