Mouse Anti-Porcine Calbindin 2 Monoclonal Antibody

Porcine calbindin 2, also known as calbindin-D28k, is a vitamin D-dependent calcium-binding protein expressed in the intestines and other tissues of pigs. It plays a significant role in calcium homeostasis by facilitating the transport and solubilization of calcium within the gastrointestinal tract, thereby aiding in the absorption of this essential mineral. Calbindin 2 is a member of the EF-hand protein family, characterized by its ability to bind calcium ions, which modulates its structure and function. The protein is particularly important for maintaining the health of the intestinal epithelium and is implicated in the regulation of intracellular calcium levels, which is crucial for various cellular processes, including signal transduction and enzyme activity.
