    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a region surrounding Pro69 of human cardiac Troponin T protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    Troponin, working in conjunction with tropomyosin, functions as a molecular switch that regulates muscle contraction in response to changes in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Troponin consists of three subunits: the Ca2+-binding subunit troponin C (TnC), the tropomyosin-binding subunit troponin T (TnT), and the inhibitory subunit troponin I (TnI) (1). In response to β-adrenergic stimulation of the heart, Ser23 and Ser24 of TnI (cardiac) are phosphorylated by PKA and PKC. This phosphorylation stimulates a conformational change of the regulatory domain of TnC, reduces the association between TnI and TnC, and decreases myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity by reducing the Ca2+ binding affinity of TnC (1-3).
    The tropomyosin binding subunit of the troponin complex TnT exists as different isoforms in slow skeletal muscle (ssTnT/TNNT1), fast skeletal muscle (fsTnT/TNNT3) and in cardiac muscle (cTnT/TNNT2). Each of these may also contain multiple alternatively spliced variants. Assays for measuring serum concentrations of cTnT, as well as cTnI, have been reported for analyzing cardiac injury.
