Background Information
PPP3CB is one of the three isoforms of the A subunit of calcineurin (CnA). Calcineurin is a calcium-dependent serine/threonine phosphatase. It consists of two subunits: subunit A (CnA) and subunit B (CnB). For CnA, three isoforms PPP3CA (CnAα), PPP3CB (CnAβ) and PPP3CC (CnAγ) have been identified. PPP3CB is a calcium-dependent, calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase. It may have a role in the calmodulin activation of calcineurin. This antibody is specific to PPP3CB.

Reviews
What customers say
One user rated this antibody 5 out of 5 stars. They used it at a 1:1000 dilution for Western Blot on a CRISPR knock-in HEK293 cell line. While they noted a couple of non-specific bands appeared, the antibody still provided the specific signal they needed for their application. Overall, the reviewer found it effective for their purpose despite minor background issues.
