Polyclonal Antibody for studying Synuclein-alpha. Validated for Western Blotting,Immunofluorescence (Frozen). Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, alpha-Synuclein Antibody (CST #2628) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information Western Blotting: 1:1000 Immunofluorescence (Frozen): 1:100 - 1:200 Storage Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunofluorescence (Frozen) Specificity / Sensitivity alpha-Synuclein Antibody detects endogenous levels of total synuclein protein. Non-specific labeling of cytoplasm in human cells and non-specific labeling of the mucosae in fixed frozen mouse colon may be observed by immunofluorescence. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat Source / Purification Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the carboxy terminus of mouse synuclein. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography. Background α-Synuclein is a protein of 140-amino acids expressed abundantly in the brain. α-Synuclein is also the main component of pathogenic Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. Research studies have shown that mutations of the α-Synuclein gene are linked to Parkinson's disease (1).
