| Host: | Sheep |
| Applications: | IHC/WB |
| Reactivity: | Human/Rat/Mouse |
| Note: | STRICTLY FOR FURTHER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
| Short Description: | Sheep polyclonal antibody anti-VAMP2 is suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry and Western Blot research applications. |
| Clonality: | Polyclonal |
| Conjugation: | Unconjugated |
| Isotype: | IgG |
| Formulation: | Lyophilised |
| Purification: | IgG purified |
| Dilution Range: | IHC, WB. A concentration of 10-50 µg/ml is recommended. The optimal concentration should be determined by the end user. Not yet tested in other applications. |
| Storage Instruction: | Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at-20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles. |
| Gene Symbol: | VAMP2 |
| Gene ID: | 6844 |
| Uniprot ID: | VAMP2_HUMAN |
| Specificity: | Specific for VAMP2. |
| Immunogen: | A synthetic peptide from human VAMP2 conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in many other species including rat, mouse and xenopus. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated by PRKCZ in vitro and this phosphorylation is increased in the presence of WDFY2. (Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.botulinum neurotoxin type B (BoNT/B, botB) which hydrolyzes the 76-Gln-|-Phe-77 bond and probably inhibits neurotransmitter release. (Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.botulinum neurotoxin type D (BoNT/D, botD) which probably hydrolyzes the 59-Lys-|-Leu-60 bond and inhibits neurotransmitter release. Note that humans are not known to be infected by C.botulinum type D. (Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.botulinum neurotoxin type F (BoNT/F, botF) which hydrolyzes the 58-Gln-|-Lys-59 bond and probably inhibits neurotransmitter release. (Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.tetani tetanus toxin (tetX) which hydrolyzes the 76-Gln-|-Phe-77 bond and probably inhibits neurotransmitter release. |
| Function | Involved in the targeting and/or fusion of transport vesicles to their target membrane. Major SNARE protein of synaptic vesicles which mediates fusion of synaptic vesicles to release neurotransmitters. Essential for fast vesicular exocytosis and activity-dependent neurotransmitter release as well as fast endocytosis that mediates rapid reuse of synaptic vesicles. Modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1. |
