Application Notes
Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blotting. Other applications not tested.
Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000-1:5000 for antiserum and 1-10ug/ml for affinity pure antibody using Chemiluminescence technique. GTRAP41 is ~270kD protein (1).
ELISA: 1:10,000-50,000 for neat serum and 0.5-1ug/ml for affinity pure. Control peptide can be used to coat ELISA plates at 1ug/ml.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Immunogen
A 15 AA synthetic peptide near the C-terminus of rat GTRAP41 was synthesized, conjugated to KLH
Preparation and Storage
May be stored at 4 degree C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20 degree C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degree C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
Related Product Information for anti-SLC1A6 antibody
Glutamate is the main excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. To date five glutamate Transporters have been cloned: GLAST (EAAT1), GLT1 (EAAT2), EAAC1 (EAAT3), EAAT4, and EAAT5. These transporters are believed to be critical in reducing potentially toxic extracellular concentration of glutamate by rapid uptake into nerve terminals and glial cells. Most recently two proteins, designated GTRAP41 and GTRAP48 (for glutamate transporter EAAT4 associated protein) that specifically interact with the intracellular carboxy-terminal domain of EAAT4 have been cloned and characterized. The proteins are proposed to modulate glutamate transport activity. GTRAP41 is 2388 aa protein (~270kD). It has seventeen 16-amino acid spectrin repeats, 2 alpha-actinin domains, and a pleckstrin homology domain. GTRAP48 is 1527 aa (~170kD). GTRAP48 possesses a PDZ domain, a regulatory G protein-signaling sequence, tandem dbl homology and pleckstrin homology domains characteristic of guanine nucleotide exchange factors for the Rho family of G proteins, and 2 proline-rich sequences. brain tissue. GTRAP41 and GTRAP48 are mainly expressed in the brain, and lower levels were also detected in liver and kidney. EAAT4, GTRAP41, and GTRAP48 are all immunolocalized in cerebellar Purkinje cell soma and dendrites, with little axonal staining. GTRAP48 was found to activate Rho. Expression of GTRAP48 induced the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. When GTRAP41 and GTRAP48 are coexpressed, GTRAP41 colocalized with actin in structures that resemble actin-stress fibers, a typical Rho-dependent effect. Overexpression of GTRAP41 and GTRAP48 enhanced glutamate uptake. GTRAP41 and GTRAP48 may therefore enhance glutamate transport either through an increase in the catalytic rate of the transporter or through an increase in cell-surface availability or by stabilizing EAAT4 at the membrane.

Product Notes

The SLC1A6 slc1a6 (Catalog #AAA616130) is an Antibody produced from Host: Rabbit Source: Rat and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti - Glutamate Transporter EAAT4 (GTRAP41, Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 4) reacts with Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Glutamate Transporter EAAT4 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA, Western Blot. Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blotting. Other applications not tested. Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000-1:5000 for antiserum and 1-10ug/ml for affinity pure antibody using Chemiluminescence technique. GTRAP41 is ~270kD protein (1). ELISA: 1:10,000-50,000 for neat serum and 0.5-1ug/ml for affinity pure. Control peptide can be used to coat ELISA plates at 1ug/ml. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC1A6 slc1a6 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 "Glutamate Transporter EAAT4, Polyclonal 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.
