SLC38A1 Antibody

Amino acid transporters play essential roles in the uptake of nutrients, production of energy, chemical metabolism, detoxification, and neurotransmitter cycling. SLC38A1 is an important transporter of glutamine, an intermediate in the detoxification of ammonia and the production of urea. Glutamine serves as a precursor for the synaptic transmitter, glutamate.Amino acid transporters play essential roles in the uptake of nutrients, production of energy, chemical metabolism, detoxification, and neurotransmitter cycling.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store SLC38A1 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

SLC38A1 antibody can be used for detection of SLC38A1 by ELISA at 1:1562500. SLC38A1 antibody can be used for detection of SLC38A1 by western blot at 2.5 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
