bs-70193R

DATASHEET

Host: Rabbit

Target Protein: NMDA NR2B Subunit (Ser1166)

Specificity: Specific for endogenous levels of the ~180 kDa NMDAR NR2B subunit phosphorylated at Ser1166. Immunolabeling is blocked by preadsorption with the phosphopeptide used as antigen, but not by the corresponding non-phosphopeptide.

Modification Site: Ser1166

Clonality: Polyclonal

Isotype: IgG

Entrez Gene: 24410

Swiss Prot: Q00960

Source: Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser1166 of the NR2B subunit of the rat NMDA receptor, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH).

Purification: Antigen Affinity purification from Pooled whole antiserum

Storage Buffer: 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg per ml BSA and 50% glycerol.

Storage: Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Background:

The NMDA receptor (NMDAR) plays an essential role in memory, neuronal development and it has also been implicated in several disorders of the central nervous system including Alzheimer’s, epilepsy and ischemic neuronal cell death (Grosshans et al., 2002; Wenthold et al., 2003; Carroll and Zukin, 2002). Overexpression of the NR2B-subunit of the NMDA Receptor has been associated with increases in learning and memory while aged, memory impaired animals have deficiencies in NR2B expression (Clayton et al., 2002a; Clayton et al., 2002b). Phosphorylation of Ser-1166 is thought to play an essential role in memory and neuronal development.
