Overview
Type: Synthetic peptide
Form: Lyophilized powder
TRPV2/VRL1 Blocking Peptide (#BLP-CC032) is the original antigen used for immunization during Anti-TRPV2 (VRL1) Antibody (#ACC-032) generation. The blocking peptide binds and ‘blocks’ Anti-TRPV2/VRL1 primary antibody, this makes it a good negative reagent control to help confirm antibody specificity in western blot and immunohistochemistry applications. This control is also often called a pre-adsorption control.

Applications
Demonstration of Pre-adsorption control
Western blot analysis of rat brain membrane (lanes 1 and 2) and rat RBL basophilic leukemia lysates (lanes 3 and 4):1,3. Anti-TRPV2 (VRL1) Antibody (#ACC-032), (1:200).
2,4. Anti-TRPV2 (VRL1) Antibody, preincubated with TRPV2/VRL1 Blocking Peptide (#BLP-CC032).
Expression of TRPV2 in mouse DRGImmunohistochemical staining of TRPV2 in mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) using Anti-TRPV2 (VRL1) Antibody (#ACC-032). A. TRPV2 (green) appears in patches along the perimeter of the DRG (arrows). B. Neurons containing neurofilament 200 (red) are scattered in the DRG, also in patches (arrows). C. A merge of the two panels shows that the spatial distribution of neurofilament 200 and TRPV2 expression overlaps. However, DRGs showing robust expression of neurofilament 200 do not contain TRPV2.
