AHP1263 recognises synaptotagmin 1, a 60kDa member of the synaptotagmin family, expressed in membranes of synaptic vesicles in rostral, phylogenetically younger brain regions and in some endocrine tissues. Ca2+ is bound by synaptogamin whose C2 domains then bind phospholipids, trafficking vesicles to the synaptic membrane and exocytosis. This results in fast synchronous neurotransmitter release. Synaptotagmin also binds neurexins, syntaxin and AP2 independently of Ca2+ binding.
Phosphorylation of synaptotagmin by protein kinases is thought to modulate its activity.

Where this product has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the product for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Western Blotting
AHP1263 detects a band of approximately 65kDa in rat cortex cell lysates.
Storage
Store at +4oC or at -20oC if preferred.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
12 months from date of despatch.
Antiserum Preparation
Antisera to synaptotagmin 1 were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG prepared by affinity chromatography.
