Type
Mouse Anti Human Monoclonal.
Introduction
α-Synuclein (amino acids 1-140), an acidic neuronal protein of 140 amino acids, is extremely heat-resistant and is natively unfolded with an extended structure primarily composed of random coils. α-synuclein has been suggested to be implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease and related neurodegenerative disorders, and more recently, to be an important regulatory component of vesicular transport in neuronal cells. Moreover, recent studies have shown that α-synuclein has chaperone activity and that this activity is lost upon removing its C-terminal acidic tail (amino acids 96-140).
Clone
P5C2AT.
Immunogen
Anti-human α-Synuclein mAb is derived from hybridization of mouse SP2/0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant human α -Synuclein amino acids 61-95 purified from E. coli.
Ig Subclass
Mouse IgG1 heavy chain and κ light chain.
Purification Method
α-Synuclein antibody was purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-G affinity chromatography.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
1mg/ml containing PBS, pH-7.4, & 0.1% Sodium Azide.
Storage Procedures
For periods up to 1 month store at 4°C, for longer periods of time, store at -20°C.
Prevent freeze thaw cycles.
Stability / Shelf Life
12 months at -20°C. 1 month at 4°C.
Applications
α-Synuclein antibody has been tested by ELISA and Western blot analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended dilution range for Western blot analysis is 1:500 ~ 1:2,000. The ?-Synuclein antibody has the specificity against the NAC domain (61-95aa) of α-synuclein. Recommended starting dilution is 1:1,000.
