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.

Electron microscopy (EM) is a microscopy technique that detects the scatter of electrons through thin tissue sections. In Immuno-EM the antigen is usually revealed by colloidal gold conjugated secondary antibodies linking electron dense structures to antigen-bound primary antibodies.

Background

The essential micronutrient zinc plays an important role in many biological processes like growth, development and reproduction. It is found in the active site of many enzymes, where ionization, polarization or replacement of Zn2+ bound water is involved in catalytic reactions. As a charged ion Zn2+ cannot cross biological membranes by simple diffusion and must be transported into or out of cells by specialized transport mechanisms. Four Zn transporter proteins, ZnT 1 to ZnT 4, have been cloned. All of them contain several transmembrane domains and a histidine rich intracellular loop.
In the central nervous system Zn plays important roles in synaptic function and plasticity. At synapses Zn is stored in synaptic vesicles by a mechanism depending on the integral membrane protein ZnT 3.
