Gria1 Antibody

GluR1 (Ser845) polyclonal antibody was raised against a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acids residues surrounding the phospho-Ser845 of rat GluR1.

Immunolabeling of the GluR1 protein in western blots of rat brain is blocked by the Ser845 phosphopeptide used as antigen but not by the corresponding non-phosphopeptide. The antibody is purified by sequential chromatography on phospho- and non-phosphopeptide affinity columns. Antibody dilutions and tissue load should be based on tissue type and expected phosphorylation state. Initial recommended range of dilutions: 1:500 to 1:2000. Applications include Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western Blots (WB) . Immunohistochemistry (IHC) has not yet been determined. Human, mouse and rat have 100% amino acid sequence identity with the antigen used to raise the antibody. When internally tested under ideal conditions the working dilutions were 1:1000 for IF, IHC and WB.
