Immunogen: Anti-Synapsin I Antibody was produced in rabbit by repeated immunizations with native bovine synapsin I protein purified from bovine brain.
Physical State: Liquid
Purity and Specificity: Anti-Synapsin I antibody was prepared from monospecific neat serum. This antibody is directed against bovine synapsin I. Anti-Synapsin I is specific for the ~78kDa synapsin I protein doublet. Immunolabeling blocked by preadsorption of the antibody with the protein used to generate the antibody. Reactivity is reported against human, mouse and rat.
Background: Synapsin I plays a key role in synaptic plasticity in the brain (Feng et al., 2002; Nayak et al., 1996). This effect is due in large part to the ability of the synapsins to regulate the availability of synaptic vesicles for release. In addition to its role in plasticity, the expression of synapsin I is a precise indicator of synapse formation. Thus, Synapsin I immunocytochemistry provides a valuable tool for the study of synaptogenesis. The role of synapsin in synaptic plasticity and in synaptogensis is regulated by phosphorylation. Anti-Synapsin I Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Cell Signaling, Neuroscience, Signal Transduction research.
Low Endotoxin: No
