Anti-Synuclein α Antibody

NA.41

alpha -Synuclein is a small (140-amino acid) cytoplasmic protein of unclear function that is enriched in presynaptic terminals and is the precursor protein of a nonamyloid beta component of senile plaques in Alzeheimer′s Disease (AD). alpha -Synuclein is located predominantly in the presynaptic nerve terminals in the brain but is also found in low concentrations in all tissues except liver. Recent studies have shown that abnormal aggregation and accumulation of synaptic proteins, including alpha-Synuclein might be associated with plaque formation in AD and seems to be a major component of Lewy bodies in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). It has also been identified in the Glial Cytoplasmic Inclusions (GCIs) found in Multiple System Atrophy (MSA).

Recognizes Alpha-synuclein. The immunizing peptide was chosen to reduce cross-reactivity of AB5038 with beta-synuclein to a minimum. Immunohistochemical and Western blot analysis of human brain indicates a high level of specificity.

Human alpha-synuclein residues 111-131 coupled to KLH. The peptide sequence is N-GILEDMPVDPDNEAYEMPSEEC-C. This peptide is available for use in blocking studies (Cat. No. AG239).

Western blot: 1:1000-1:2000

Immunohistochemistry: 1:1000-1:2000 on paraffin sections, 1:4000-1:12,000 on frozen sections..

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
This Anti-Synuclein Antibody, α is validated for use in IH(P), WB for the detection of Synuclein.
