ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Clone 3F19 is a ZooMAb^® Rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects Sodium channel protein type 2 subunit alpha (SCN2A). It targets an epitope within 23 amino acids from the C-terminal, cytoplasmic domain.

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to 23 amino acids from the C-terminal, cytoplasmic domain of human Sodium channel protein type 2 subunit alpha (SCN2A).

Anti-SCN2A, clone 3F19 ZooMAb^®, Cat. No. ZRB1300, is a recombinant Rabbit monoclonal antibody that detects SCN2A and is tested for use in Affinity Binding Assay, Immunocytochemistry, and Western Blotting.

Sodium channel protein type 2 subunit alpha (UniProt: Q99250; also known as HBSC II, Sodium channel protein brain II subunit alpha, Sodium channel protein type II subunit alpha, Voltage-gated sodium channel subunit alpha Nav1.2, SCN2A) is encoded by the SCN2A (also known as NAC2, SCN2A1, SCN2A2) gene (Gene ID: 6326) in human. Sodium channels are integral plasma membrane proteins that conduct Na+ transport across the plasma membrane. They are classified as either voltage-gated or ligand-gated based on the nature of the triggering mechanism for channel activation. SCN2A is a multi-pass membrane glycoprotein with 13 cytoplasmic domains, 16 extracellular domains, and 24 transmembrane domains, and It mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. It forms a sodium-selective channel through which Na+ ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. Mutations in SCN2A gene are known to cause infantile epileptic encephalopathy that is characterized by infantile-onset seizures, before 12 months of age, followed by neurodevelopmental delay. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb^® formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
