Mutations in nAChRs are found in a rare form of nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy . Previously, some nAChR mutations have been described that are associated with additional neurological features such as psychiatric disorders or cognitive defects. A new CHRNB2 mutation located in transmembrane region 3 (M3), outside the known ADNFLE mutation cluster. The CHRNB2 mutation I312M, which occurred de novo in twins, markedly increases the receptor's sensitivity to acetylcholine. Phenotypically, the mutation is associated not only with typical ADNFLE, but also with distinct deficits in memory. The cognitive problems are most obvious in tasks requiring the organization and storage of verbal information.

Antibody advice
CHRNB2 antibody can be used for detection of CHRNB2 by ELISA at 1:312500. CHRNB2 antibody can be used for detection of CHRNB2 by western blot at 2.5 ug/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
Suspention, pH, azide
Antibody is lyophilized in PBS buffer with 2% sucrose. Add 50 μL of distilled water. Final antibody concentration is 1 mg/mL.
Keep at
For short periods of storage (days) store at 4 grades C. For longer periods of storage, store CHRNB2 antibody at -20 grades C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.
This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.
Properties
If you buy Antibodies supplied by proscience they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
