Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II beta chain is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CAMK2B gene. Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that functions autonomously after Ca2+/calmodulin-binding and autophosphorylation, and is involved in sarcoplsamic reticulum Ca2+ transport in skeletal muscle and may function in dendritic spine and synapse formation and neuronal plasticity.

1. Result
“In hbsmc, the anti CaMKII visualized with a secondary antibody labeled with Alexa 488 showed a punctuated distri-
bution near the cell membrane and through the cytoplasm similar to that observed with an anti-CaMKII obtained
from a different company. The negative control showed no specific and very low unspecific labeling (nor shown). At
this moment, it is difficult to evaluate the antibody specificity due the lack of a western blot against proteins extract-
ed from human detrusor tissue. “ - Ricardo Peneda, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.
