Related Product Information for anti-SYP antibody
Mouse anti Human synaptophysin antibody, clone SY38 recognizes synaptophysin, also known as Major synaptic vesicle protein p38. Synaptophysin is a 313 amino acid ~38kDa multi pass transmembrane glycoprotein containing a single MARVEL domain. Synaptophysin is characteristic of small neurosecretory vesicles and is also present in neuroendocrine cells of neuronal and epithelial phenotype (UniProt: P08247). Synaptophysin is widely used as a marker for nerve terminals and for differentiating neuroendocrine tumours.Mouse anti Human synaptophysin antibody, clone SY38 has been used to detect synaptophysin in a number of neuronal and adrenal tumours including, pheochromocytomas, ganglioneuromas (Pace et al. 2002), neuroendocrine tumours of epithelial origin; pancreatic islet cell carcinoma, bronchial and gastrointestinal carcinoids and medullary carcinoma of the thyroid (Wiedenmann et al. 1986).
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an integral membrane protein of small synaptic vesicles in brain and endocrine cells. The protein also binds cholesterol and is thought to direct targeting of vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (synaptobrevin) to intracellular compartments. Mutations in this gene are associated with X-linked mental retardation (XLMR). [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
Uniprot Description
SYP: Possibly involved in structural functions as organizing other membrane components or in targeting the vesicles to the plasma membrane. Involved in the regulation of short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity. Homohexamer or homotetramer. Interacts with SRCIN1. Characteristic of a type of small (30-80 nm) neurosecretory vesicles, including presynaptic vesicles, but also vesicles of various neuroendocrine cells of both neuronal and epithelial phenotype. Belongs to the synaptophysin/synaptobrevin family.

Product Notes
The SYP syp (Catalog #
AAA211941) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The MOUSE ANTI SYNAPTOPHYSIN reacts with Bovine, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SYNAPTOPHYSIN can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistology Frozen, Immunohistology Paraffin, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SYP syp for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"SYNAPTOPHYSIN, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an
additional dry ice fee may also be
required.
