Synaptoporin s a synaptic vesicle membrane protein similar to synaptophysin1 enriched in Mossy fibres
Rabbit monoclonal recombinant IgG
Cat. No.: 102 008
Amount: 50 µg
Price: $415.00
Cat. No. 102 008 50 µg purified recombinant IgG, lyophilized. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use.
Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze!

Clone Rb44E3D12
Subtype IgG1 (κ light chain)
Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to AA 250 to 263 from rat Synaptoporin (UniProt Id: P22831)
Reactivity Reacts with: mouse (Q8BGN8), rat (P22831).
Other species not tested yet.
Matching control protein/peptide 102-1P
Remarks

This antibody is a chimeric antibody based on the monoclonal mouse antibody clone 44E3D12. The constant regions of the heavy and light chains have been replaced by rabbit specific sequences. Therefore, the antibody can be used with standard anti-rabbit secondary reagents. The antibody has been expressed in mammalian cells.
IHC: In addition to the expected strong mossy fibre staining, this antibody shows some weak unspecific staining of cell bodies in some brain regions.

Background

Synaptoporin, also known as synaptophysin 2 and p38-2, is highly homologous to synaptophysin 1 but encoded by a different gene. Like synaptopysin 1, synaptoporin contains four transmembrane regions and a short cytoplasmic tail. Unlike synaptophysin 1, it is not glycosylated.
The distributions of synaptophysin 1 and synaptoporin are different. Synaptophysin 1 is more uniformly expressed whereas synaptoporin is particularly enriched in mossy fiber synapses in the hippocampus. It is thus an excellent marker for subsets of synapses.
