Reconstitution: 1 X 25 µL double distilled water (DDW), depending on the sample size. The antibody ships as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon arrival, it should be stored at -20C. The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4C for up to 1 week. For longer periods, small aliquots should be stored at -20C. Avoid multiple freezing and thawing. Centrifuge all antibody preparations before use (10000 x g 5 min).
Human ether-a-go-go related gene (HERG) encodes the pore-forming alpha subunit of the delayed rectifier potassium channel IKr. There are two N-terminal splice variants of HERG include the full-length isoform 1 alpha and the shorter isoform 1 beta. Isoform 1 beta lacks the PAS motif and deactivates at a faster rate than isoform 1alpha. Residues within the C-terminal play a role in channel expression and channel gating, including voltage-dependent activation. HERG is expressed in the heart and is more abundantly expressed in the ventricles than in the atria. Mutations in the gene encoding HERG increase beat-to-beat variability and early after depolarization. These fluctuations facilitate the genesis and propagation of premature heartbeats associated with inheritable long QT syndrome type 2 and short QT syndrome type 1.
