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.

Background

Rabphilin 3a is a putative effector protein for the low molecular weight GTP-binding protein rab 3. Rab 3 occurs in four isoforms (Rab 3a, b, c and d), all of which probably bind to rabphilin 3a when in the GTP-bound form.
Rabphilin 3a contains an N-terminal Zn2+-finger sequence that is essential for binding rab 3, and two C-terminal C2 - domains that may bind Ca2+. It does not have a transmembrane region.
Rabphilin 3a is primarily expressed in neurons where it is localized to synaptic vesicles. It is probably recruited to synaptic vesicles by rab 3a and 3c. The structure of rabphilin 3a and its interaction with rab 3 suggests that it may be a Ca2+ sensor on synaptic vesicles that is recruited to synaptic vesicles as a function of GTP by rab 3.
