Background Information
Calpain 1 is a calcium-dependent cysteine protease belonging to the calpain family. It functions as a heterodimer consisting of a catalytic large subunit of approximately 80 kDa and a regulatory small subunit of approximately 28 kDa, forming a holoenzyme of about 110 kDa; however, the large subunit is typically detected at 75-80 kDa by Western blotting. This protease plays critical roles in various physiological processes, including cytoskeletal remodeling, signal transduction, cell migration, apoptosis, and long-term potentiation, by executing limited proteolysis of substrate proteins (e.g., membrane proteins, kinases, and cytoskeletal proteins) to modulate their functions rather than to degrade them completely. Dysregulation of calpain 1 activity is closely associated with multiple pathological conditions, such as muscular atrophy, neurodegenerative diseases and ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Reviews
What customers say
All four reviews are 5-star ratings from Western Blot applications. Users report strong, single bands at the expected molecular weight across multiple sample types including mouse heart tissue, NRVCMs, and HEK cells. The antibody was validated at dilutions of 1:1000 and 1:5000, with one user noting it successfully detected both endogenous and overexpressed Calpain-1. Overall, reviewers describe consistent, reliable performance with clean results and no mention of background or non-specific binding issues.
