Anti-VGAT (L118/80) Recombinant Chicken Chimeric mAb (BSA and Azide Free)

Selected Variant

78-457-CF

Size: 100 µL

Our chicken Anti-VGAT recombinant monoclonal antibody is a chimeric antibody derived from NeuroMab clone L118/80. It detects mouse and rat VGAT, and is purified by affinity chromatography. It is great for use in IHC, ICC, WB.

Product Specifications

Background

The Vesicular GABA Amino Acid Transporter (VGAT) is responsible for transport of the inhibitory neurotransmitter into synaptic vesicles (McIntire et al., 1997) . The VGAT protein (also known as the Vesicular Inhibitory Amino Aid Transporter or VIAAT) is expressed in synaptic vesicles of both glycine and GABAergic synapses throughout the CNS (Chaudhry et al., 1998) . Expression of the VGAT protein changes during development and also in response to patterns of neuronal activity (De et al., 2005) .

Synonyms

Vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter (GABA and glycine transporter) (Solute carrier family 32 member 1) (Vesicular GABA transporter) (mVGAT) (mVIAAT)

Storage Conditions

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.

Notes

This recombinant antibody is a chimeric antibody created by replacing the mouse heavy and light constant regions of clone L118/80 with chicken IgY heavy and light constant regions. As such this antibody retains the same binding performance as the original clone L118/80 but can be detected using standard anti-chicken secondary antibodies allowing flexibility for multiplexing applications. This antibody is expressed recombinantly in mammalian cells and then affinity purified from the cell culture media and buffer exchanged into 1X PBS.
