AHP1881 recognises the NR2B subunit of the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor.
Receptors for NMDA belong to a group of ionotropic glutamate receptors which play a key role in the mediation of glutamate neurotransmission within the mammalian central nervous system (CNS), including involvement in memory and learning processes. Several antagonists and agonists of NMDA receptors (NMDAR) have been identified. Properties of NMDAR include modulation by glycine, inhibition by Zn2+, voltage-dependent Mg2+blockade and high Ca2+permeability.
The involvement of NMDAR in the CNS has become a focus area for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and also epilepsy and ischemic neuronal cell death.

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
AHP1881 detects a band of approximately 180kDa in rat hippocampal 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
18 months from date of despatch.
Antiserum Preparation
Antisera to rat NMDA receptor NR2B subunit were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG was prepared by affinity chromatography.
