SLC6A8 blocking peptide
SLC6A8 Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane protein whose function is to transport creatine into and out of cells. Defects in this gene can result in X-linked creatine deficiency syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
Uniprot Description
SLC6A8: Required for the uptake of creatine in muscles and brain. Defects in SLC6A8 are the cause of X-linked creatine deficiency syndrome (XL-CDS). XL-CDS causes developmental delay, hypotonia, mental retardation, seizures, short stature and midface hypoplasia. Belongs to the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter (SNF) (TC 2.A.22) family. SLC6A8 subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SLC6A8 slc6a8 (Catalog #AAA823161) is a Blocking Peptide produced from Synthetic and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SLC6A8 Blocking Peptide reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat, Rabbit and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SLC6A8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). Blocking Peptide to the diluted primary antibody in a molar ratio of 10:1 (peptide to antibody) and incubate the mixture at 4 degree C for overnight or at room temperature for 2 hours. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC6A8 slc6a8 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 "SLC6A8, Blocking Peptide" 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.Precautions
