Background of Kv1.4
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 4, also known as Kv1.4 or PCN2, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KCNA4 gene. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, shaker-related subfamily. It is mapped to 11p14.1. KCNA4 belongs to the A-type potassium current class, the members of which may be important in the regulation of the fast repolarizing phase of action potentials in heart and thus may influence the duration of cardiac action potential. KCNA4 also contributes to the cardiac transient outward potassium current (Ito1), the main contributing current to the repolarizing phase 1 of the cardiac action potential. This gene has been shown to interact with DLG4, KCNA2 and DLG1.
Antibody Validation

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of Kv1.4 using anti-Kv1.4 antibody (PB9807).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 40 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: HELA Whole Cell Lysate,
Lane 2: COLO320 Whole Cell Lysate,
Lane 3: HT1080 Whole Cell Lysate,
Lane 4: PANC Whole Cell Lysate.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Kv1.4 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PB9807) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Kv1.4 at approximately 73 kDa. The expected band size for Kv1.4 is at 73 kDa.

Figure 2. IHC analysis of Kv1.4 using anti-Kv1.4 antibody (PB9807).
Kv1.4 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human lung cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1 μg/ml rabbit anti-Kv1.4 Antibody (PB9807) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) (Catalog # SA1022) with DAB as the chromogen.

Asked: 2014-11-06
Answer
The anti-Kv1.4/KCNA4 antibody (PB9807) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with monkey tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in monkey you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
