Assay
Reference: J:90043 Acosta L, et al., Regional expression of L-type calcium channel subunits during cardiac development. Dev Dyn. 2004 May;230(1):131-6
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:3590174
Gene symbol: Cacna1c
Gene name: calcium channel, voltage-dependent, L type, alpha 1C subunit
Antibody: anti-alpha1C subunit
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to alkaline phosphatase
Assay notes: The authors used either this antibody or an anti-II-III loop antibody (MGI:3590161) and stated that similar results were obtained with both.
