		Technical Data
S9500-40A	Synaptophysin (SYP, Major Synaptic Vesicle Protein p38)

Description:
Synaptophysin (Syn1) is an abundant synaptic vesicle membrane protein that contains four transmembrane regions. It forms a high molecular weight complex in the vesicle membrane containing at least four Syn I subunits and an 18kD protein termed synaptobrevin/VAMP. Syn I is phosphorylated by both serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases on its cytoplasmic tail. Knockout studies in mice have shown that it is not essential for neurotransmitter release.

Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin fixed paraffin embedded): 5ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
