Background Information
PVALB is a high affinity calcium ion-binding protein that is structurally and functionally similar to calmodulin and troponin C. PVALB is expressed in high levels only in fast-contracting muscles and at lower levels in brain and several endocrine tissues. It is thought to be involved in muscle relaxation. Monomeric (12 kDa) and dimeric (24 kDa) forms, as well as trimeric Parvalbumin (38 kDa), have been described in a literature (PMID: 19616851).

Reviews
What customers say
The single review rates the product 4 out of 5 stars. The user tested the Parvalbumin (red) antibody at a 1:100 dilution for immunofluorescence on human brain cortex sections. They reported that the antibody worked well, though it predominantly labeled synaptic terminals rather than the soma of parvalbumin-positive cells. Overall, the reviewer found the reagent functional for their intended application.

Reyes (Verified Customer) (03-01-2024) | Parvalbumin (red) antibody worked in my human brain cortex sections, although it marks mostly the synaptic terminals more than the soma of the parvalbumin cells
