Species cross-reactivity is determined by western blot. Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology.

Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Synapsin-1 (D13C1) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of total synapsin-1 protein. The antigen is 100% conserved between human synapsin-1a and synapsin-1b.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro575 of human synapsin-1 protein.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from mouse, rat, and fetal rat brain using Synapsin-1 (D13C1) Rabbit mAb.

Background

Synapsins, a group of at least five related members (synapsins Ia, Ib, IIa, IIb, and IIIa), are abundant brain proteins essential for regulating neurotransmitter release (1,2). All synapsins contain a short amino-terminal domain that is highly conserved and phosphorylated by PKA or CaM kinase I (1). Phosphorylation of the synapsin amino-terminal domain at Ser9 inhibits its binding to phospholipids and dissociates synapsins from synaptic vesicles (2).
