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! |
| Applications | |
| Clone | Gp68B7 |
| Subtype | IgG2 (κ light chain) |
| Immunogen | Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of rat VGLUT 1. (UniProt Id: Q62634) |
| Reactivity |
Reacts with: rat (Q62634), mouse (Q3TXX4). Other species not tested yet. |
| Specificity | K.O. validated |
| Matching control protein/peptide | 135-0P |
| Remarks |
This antibody is a chimeric antibody based on the well-known monoclonal mouse antibody clone 68B7. The constant regions of the heavy and light chains have been replaced by Guinea pig specific sequences. Therefore, the antibody can be used with standard anti-Guinea pig secondary reagents. The antibody has been expressed in mammalian cells. |

The vesicular glutamate transporter 1 VGLUT 1, also referred to as BNPI and SLC17A7, was originally identified as a brain specific phosphate transporter. Like the related VGLUT 2, VGLUT 1 is both necessary and sufficient for uptake and storage of glutamate and thus comprises the sole determinant for a glutamatergic phenotype. Both VGLUTs are different from the plasma membrane transporters in that they are driven by a proton electrochemical gradient across the vesicle membrane.
VGLUT 1 and VGLUT 2 show complementary expression patterns. Together, they are currently the best markers for glutamatergic nerve terminals and glutamatergic synapses.
