Accession :
P0DQN8
Accession Number :
https://www.uniprot.org/uniprotkb/P0DQN8/entry
Applications :
Electrophysiology
Formulation :
Lyophilized from double distilled water (ddH2O). May contain TFA as a residual counter ion.
Storage After Reconstitution :
The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitution and Solubility :
Centrifuge the vial (10,000 × g for 5 minutes) before adding solvent to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Gently tap, tilt, and roll the vial to aid dissolution. Avoid vigorous vortexing; light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity.

Gene ID :
SCN1A,SCN4A,SCN5A,SCN8A
Product Page - Scientific background :
Hj1a is a peptide toxin originally isolated from the Hottentotta jayakari scorpion venoM Hj1a acts as a potent NaV1.1 channel activator. Hj1a is unique in that it presents a dual α/β activity by modifying both the activation and inactivation properties of the channel1.NaV1.1 is predominantly expressed in inhibitory interneurons of the brain and it plays a major role in regulating brain rhythms and cognitive functions. Mutations in NaV1.1 channel were shown to be related to Dravet syndrome (DS), a severe form of pediatric epilepsy. NaV1.1 selective modulators can be useful therapeutics for treatment of DS as they target the underlying molecular deficit2.
