GABA-A receptor alpha2 antibody extracellular - 224 103 K.O.

GABA-A receptors are involved in inhibitory neurotransmission
Rabbit polyclonal purified antibody
Cat. No.: 224 103
Amount: 50 µg
Price: $400.00
Cat. No. 224 103 50 µg specific antibody, lyophilized. Affinity purified with the immunogen. 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
 
WB: yes (see remarks)
IP: yes
ICC: 1 : 500 (see remarks) gallery  
IHC: 1 : 1000 (see remarks) gallery  
IHC-P: not tested yet
EM: yes

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.
Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to AA 29 to 37 from rat GABA-A receptor α2 (UniProt Id: P23576)
Reactivity Reacts with: human (P47869), rat (P23576), mouse (P26048).
Other species not tested yet.
Specificity K.O. validated PubMed: 26973458
Matching control protein/peptide 224-1P
Remarks

WB: The crude antiserum (cat. no. 224 102) is highly recommended. GABA-A receptor alpha2 aggregates after boiling, making it necessary to run SDS-PAGE with non-boiled samples.
ICC: This antibody is also suitable for the surface staining of living cells. After washing cells with bound antibodies, they can be fixed and visualized with secondaryreagents.
IHC: For best results use the protocol of Schneider Gasser et al., 2006.

Background

Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA-A) receptors mediate the majority of inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. These receptor proteins are ligand gated chloride ion channels and consist of a pentameric combination of different subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon and rho). The resulting heterogenous population of GABA-A receptor subtypes are expressed throughout the brain with specific cellular and subcellular expression patterns.
