Anti-Kir3.1 Antibody

Rabbit polyclonal antibody to Kir3.1

Western blot analysis of Kir3.1 expression in mouse brain (A) whole cell lysates.
Immunofluorescent analysis of Kir3.1 staining in K562 cells. Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with the primary antibody in 3% BSA-PBS and incubated overnight at 4 °C in a hidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight 594-conjugated secondary antibody (red) in PBS at room temperature in the dark. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue).

Function	Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium. This potassium channel is controlled by G proteins (PubMed:8804710, PubMed:8868049). This receptor plays a crucial role in regulating the heartbeat (By similarity).
Cellular Location	Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
