Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets homer protein homolog 1 (gene HOMER1) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 40.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 50 kDa.
Homer 1 (HOMER1) is a scaffolding protein of the postsynaptic density. Through its EVH1 domain it binds group I metabotropic glutamate receptors, IP3 receptors, ryanodine receptors and Shank proteins, coupling surface receptors to intracellular Ca2+ stores. An activity-induced short form (Homer1a) disrupts these links, and HOMER1 is studied in synaptic plasticity.

Immunogen
Recombinant human HOMER1 fragment (Asp135–Ser354), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places homer protein homolog 1 in the cytoplasm, postsynaptic density, synapse and cell projection. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
