DATASHEET

Host: Rabbit

Target Protein: Synapsin (Ser549)

Specificity: Specific for endogenous levels of the ~78 kDa synapsin I doublet phosphorylated at Ser549. Immunolabeling is completely eliminated by treatment with λ-phosphatase.

Modification Site: Ser549

Clonality: Polyclonal

Isotype: IgG

Entrez Gene: 281510

Swiss Prot: P17599

Source: Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser549 of rat synapsin, 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:

Synapsin I plays a key role in synaptic plasticity in brain (Feng et al., 2002; Nayak et al., 1996). This effect is due in large part to the ability of the synapsins to regulate the availability of synaptic vesicles for release. The role of synapsin in synaptic plasticity and in synaptogenesis is regulated by phosphorylation (Jovanovic et al., 2001; Kao et al., 2002). Ser-549 along with Ser-62 and Ser-67 are the sites of synapsin I that are phosphorylated by MAP kinase (Jovanovic et al., 1996). Phosphorylation and subsequent dephosphorylation of this site is thought to play a key role in synaptic vesicle trafficking.
