Product Specifications

Immunogen

Recombinant fragment (around aa 224-313) of human Synaptophysin (SYP) protein (exact sequence is proprietary) (Uniprot: IDP08247)

Localization

Cytoplasmic

Specificity

This recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody recognizes a protein of 38kDa that is identified as synaptophysin. It is an N-glycosylated integral membrane protein found in neurons and endocrine cells. Synaptophysin contains four transmembrane domains and may function as a gap junction-like channel. This antibody identifies normal neuroendocrine cells and neuroendocrine neoplasms. Diffuse, finely granular, cytoplasmic staining is observed, which probably correlates with the distribution of the antigen within neurosecretory vesicles. Synaptophysin is an independent, broad-range marker of neural and neuroendocrine differentiation.

Background: Synaptophysin

Synaptophysin (Syp I), also called the major synaptic vesicle protein p38, is an integral membrane glycoprotein found in the synaptic vesicles of brain, neuron and neuroendocrine cells. Synaptophysin is one of the most abundant membrane proteins, comprising approximately 7% of the total protein in small synaptic vesicles. In mature nerve terminals it forms a complex with the vesicular membrane protein synaptobrevin, which appears to modulate synaptobrevin's interaction with the plasma membrane-associated proteins syntaxin and SNAP25 to form the SNARE complex as a prerequisite for membrane fusion. Synaptophysin may also be used as a neuroendocrine tumor marker in both neuroscience and cancer research.
