Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Complexin-1 (D5Q5H) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total Compexin-1 protein. This antibody does not cross-react with Complexin-2.

Species Reactivity:

Human, Mouse, Rat

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to human Complexin-1 protein.

Background

Complexins are small soluble proteins composed of a central α-helical-structured domain surrounded by amino- and carboxy-terminal unstructured domains (1). These cytosolic proteins bind to t-SNAREs with low affinity and to assembled SNARE complexes with high affinity (1,2). Two isoforms, complexin-1 and complexin-2, are expressed in neuronal cells (3) where they regulate evoked and spontaneous exocytosis (4,5). Altered complexin expression resulting from RNAi-mediated knockdown (6) or gene invalidation (7) leads to alteration in spontaneous fusion events and neurotransmitter release, which reflects functions at both inhibitory and stimulatory synapses.

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v nonfat dry milk, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
