Anti-Cav1.1 antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target Cav1.1 is a known alias name of the protein calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 S, encoded by the CACNA1S gene in humans. This 1873-amino acid residue protein is known to be involved in the transport of ions, among other biological processes. It is localized to the cell membrane of the cell and features glycosylated, cleaved and phosphorylated post-translational modifications. In terms of tissue expression, it is reported to have skeletal muscle specific expression. Other synonyms for Cav1.1 include CACNL1A3, CCHL1A3, and CMYP18.
