With its partners, SNAP25 and VAMP2, it is responsible for regulating calcium ion channels and for fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. This protein shares homology across Mammalia, and therefore is expected to cross-react with many species. The antibodies in this kit were raised against the human full-length recombinant protein.\u003cbr\u003e\nREACH authorisation\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nSyntaxin 1a also known as STX1A is an essential protein in cellular mechanisms involved in neurotransmitter release. This protein weighing approximately 33 kDa plays a direct role in synaptic vesicle fusion through its function as a member of the SNARE (Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor Attachment protein Receptor) complex. Syntaxin 1a is highly expressed in the brain especially in areas like the hippocampus and cerebral cortex where it facilitates rapid neurotransmission important for communication between neurons.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe involvement of Syntaxin 1a in synaptic transmission is significant. It forms a complex with other proteins such as SNAP-25 and VAMP enabling the docking and fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. This action results in the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft which then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron to propagate neural signals. Syntaxin 1a ensures efficient synaptic activity and is indispensable for maintaining synaptic plasticity which is critical for learning and memory.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nSyntaxin 1a is pivotal in the regulation of neurotransmitter release within the synaptic vesicle cycle pathway. This pathway includes the assembly and disassembly of the SNARE complex which are processes vital for neurotransmitter exocytosis. Syntaxin 1a engages closely with proteins like synaptotagmin acting as calcium sensors and Munc18 which helps in initiating SNARE assembly. These interactions highlight the careful orchestration of vesicle trafficking and fusion events necessary for effective synaptic communication.\u003cbr\u003e\nDysfunctions in Syntaxin 1a are linked to neurological conditions such as epilepsy and autism spectrum disorders. Alterations or mutations in Syntaxin 1a can lead to improper synaptic vesicle fusion and disrupted neurotransmitter release which are characteristics of these disorders. Additionally Syntaxin 1a interacts with proteins like Munc18-1 whose mutations are associated with similar synaptic transmission deficiencies further implicating the involvement of Syntaxin 1a in these pathologies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843572486313,"sku":"ab277088","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab277088","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
