Applications
 
WB: 1 : 1000 (AP staining) (see remarks) gallery  
IP: yes
ICC: not recommended
IHC: not recommended
IHC-P: not tested yet
ELISA: yes (see remarks)

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); a frequently employed method to quantify target-molecules in solution. The detection of some proteins requires special solubilization steps. For further information, please refer to the „Remarks“ section.

Clone 321A8
Subtype IgG2a (κ light chain)
Immunogen Recombinant protein corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of rat VGLUT2 (UniProt Id: Q9JI12)
Epitop AA 564 to 582 from rat VGLUT2 (UniProt Id: Q9JI12)
Reactivity Reacts with: rat (Q9JI12).
No signal: chicken.
Other species not tested yet.
Remarks

WB

  • Cat. no. 135 421 is more sensitive and the first choice for westernblot experiments.
  • VGLUT 2 aggregates after boiling, making it necessary to run SDS-PAGE with non-boiled samples.

ELISA: Suitable as capture antibody for sandwich-ELISA with cat. no. 135 403 as detector antibody. The ELISA-protocol for membrane proteins is recommended.

Background

The vesicular glutamate transporter 2 VGLUT 2, also referred to as DNPI and SLC17A6, has a more restricted expression than the related VGLUT 1. Like VGLUT 1, it 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.
