Anti-Vesicular Glutamate Transporter 1 Antibody

产品说明

一般描述

Vesicular glutamate transporter 1 (VGLUT1) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 19q13. VGLUT1 is specifically expressed in neuronal cells in the brain. It is characterized with a conserved C-terminal dileucine-like motif and two polyproline domains distal to C- terminal end, including one that binds to endocytic BAR (Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs) domain protein, endophilin.

特异性

Recognizes Vesicular Glutamate Transporter 1 (VGLUT1, BNPI {Brain specific Na+ dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter}). The antiserum has been tested on tissue sections from the rat central nervous system (CNS) using immunofluorescence histochemistry. The antiserum mainly labels nerve fibers and terminals. VGLUT1 is an excellent marker for glutamatergic nerve terminals. The staining pattern for the staining obtained with the VGLUT1 antiserum corresponds to the pattern described using other antisera to VGLUT1 (Bellocchio et al., 1998; Fremeau et al., 2001; Fujiyama et al., 2001; Sakata-Haga et al., 2001; Tong et al., 2001; Kaneko et al. 2002; Varoqui et al., 2002). Preabsorption of the VGLUT1 antiserum with immunogen peptide eliminates all immunostaining.

免疫原

Synthetic peptide from rat VGLUT1 protein with no overlap to VGLUT2. The immunogen is available as AG208.

应用

Anti-Vesicular Glutamate Transporter 1 Antibody has been used in:

生化/生理作用

Vesicular glutamate transporter 1 (VGLUT1) plays a vital role as an vesicular glutamate transporter in glutamatergic neurons. VGLUT1 expression in the prefrontal cortex, functions as a potential neurochemical marker of dementia in Alzheimer disease (AD) and implicated in antidepressant activity.
