Anti-Shank1 Antibody

SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains protein 1, or shank 1 is a member of the shank family. Shank 1 binding domains include a SH3 domain, a proline rich domain, a PDZ domain and ankyrin repeat domains. Unlike other shank family proteins, shank 1 is found in only in brain in the neuropil of cortex, CA1 region hippocampus and molecular layer of cerebellum, amygdala, substantia nigra and thalamus. Cellularly, shank 1 can be found in cytoplasm, cell junctions, postsynaptic cell membrane and postsynaptic density. Many isoforms of shank 1 exist, and some are expressed during development, while others are expressed in mature tissue. Shank 1 acts as a scaffold protein anchoring and connecting membrane bound receptors and other proteins to the cytoskeleton in neurons to enable cell signaling. In this manner, Shank 1 may play a role in synapse formation and dendritic spine maturation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autism spectrm disorder and diabetic encephalopathy.

Our Anti-Shank1 mouse monoclonal primary antibody from NeuroMab is produced in-house from hybridoma clone N22/21. It detects human, mouse, and rat Shank1, and is purified by protein a chromatography. It is great for use in WB, IHC, ICC, ELISA.

Aliquot and store at ≤ -20°C for long term storage. For short term storage, store at 2-8°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the vial prior to removing the cap.

Each new lot of antibody is quality control tested by western blot on rat whole brain lysate and confirmed to stain the expected molecular weight band.
