| Unit size: |
100 µl |
| Antigen: |
A synthetic peptide (GLFSSYRLPGHTQDTLVAQKSS) as a part of porcine ChAT protein (aa: 167-188) conjugated to KLH |
| Other Names: |
Choline O-acetyltransferase, CHOACTase, Choline acetylase |
| Accession: |
CLAT_PIG |
| Description: |
FUNCTION: Catalyzes the reversible synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) from acetyl CoA and choline at cholinergic synapses. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the carnitine/choline acetyltransferase family. |
| Produced in: |
NZ white rabbit |
| Purity: |
Whole serum |
| Applications: |
IHC, WB, 1 site ELISA. Use at a dilution of 1:1000 to 1: 3000 for these applications. This antiserum will superbly stain both cell bodies and nerve terminal. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. |
| Specificity: |
This antiserum stains cholinergic neurons in guinea-pig and rabbit. |
| Cross-reactivity: |
This antiserum is known to react with ChAT of origin guinea-pig, mouse, rat and rabbit. |
| Blast it: |
If you would like to use this product in another species other than those specified here, or to see the shared identity between the immunogen used here in different speices and/or other molecules, simply copy the immunogen (from the Immunogen field) and paste it HERE and blast/format it. Note that, antisera raised against synthetic peptides are quite often very specific for that peptide ie, only one single amino acid difference may be enough to restrict the specificity to a particular molecule. Regardless, you can always contact us if you need assistance with this. |
| Form: |
Lyophilised |
| Reconstitution: |
Reconstitute in 100 µl of sterile water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. |
| Storage: |
After reconstitution keep aliquots at -20°C for a higher stability, and at 4°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid repetitive freeze/thaw cycles. |
