Immunogen: recombinant, full length, human alpha-synuclein UniProt: P37840, epitope was mapped between amino acid 1-15
Host: Rabbit
Clonality: Polyclonal
Purity: Serum
Format: Lyophilized
Quantity: 100 µl
Reconstitution: For reconstitution add 100 µl of sterile water
Storage: Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube.
Tested applications: ELISA (ELISA), Immunolocalization (IL), Western blot (WB)
Alpha-synuclein is normally an unstructured soluble protein that can aggregate to form insoluble fibrils in pathological conditions characterized by Lewy bodies, such as Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy-bodies, and multiple system atrophy.

Immunolocalization: human tissue was paraffin-embedded and sectioned. De-waxed and rehydrated in an ethanol gradient. Antigens were retrieved in sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) at 95°C for 1 h. The tissue sections were separately incubated for 1 h at RT with primary antibody and antibody binding was visualized with IgG Preoxidase Reagent Kit.This antibody will recognize human SNCA monomers and multimers in Western blot and can be used to detect fibrills in a sandwich ELISA. In ELISA this antibody can be used for detection, combined with AS13 2719 as a capture antibody.
