Clone Rb27E3
Subtype IgG1 (κ light chain)
Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding (AA 450) of rat Synapsin2 (UniProt Id: Q63537-1)
Reactivity Reacts with: mouse (Q64332-1), rat (Q63537-1).

Remarks

This antibody is a chimeric antibody based on the monoclonal mouse antibody 27E3. The constant regions of the heavy and light chains have been replaced with rabbit specific sequences. The antibody can therefore be used with standard anti-rabbit secondary reagents. The antibody has been expressed in mammalian cells.

Background

Synapsins are neuron-specific phosphoproteins that are exclusively associated with small synaptic vesicles, with little or no expression in other tissues including neuroendocrine cells. In mammals, three distinct synapsin genes (synapsin1, 2 and 3) encode more than eight neuronal isoforms.
Synapsin1 is one of the most specific markers of synapses throughout the central and peripheral nervous system. In addition to synaptic nerve terminals, the protein is also present in certain sensory nerve endings. It is expressed in two splice variants (synapsin1a and synapsin1b). Synapsin1 interacts with vesicle membranes as well as with actin and spectrin.
Synapsin2 is expressed in the nervous system and also two splice variants were described so far, while synapsin3 shows a more restricted expression pattern and is mainly found in the hippocampus.
Synapsins are major phosphoproteins and are substrates for several protein kinases such as PKA, CaMK I and CaMK II. Synapsin1 is widely used as reference substrate for calmodulin-dependent protein kinases.
