Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets protein shisa-6 (gene SHISA6) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 55.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 56 kDa.
Shisa-6 (SHISA6) is a transmembrane auxiliary protein of AMPA-type glutamate receptors. At hippocampal CA3–CA1 synapses it holds AMPA receptors in the postsynaptic density and limits desensitization, supporting high-frequency synaptic transmission; it may also restrain Wnt signaling in spermatogonial stem cells.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| Flow cytometry (fixed cells) | 1–3 µg/1×106 cells (Human) |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat brain tissue, mouse brain tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 50 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): U2OS cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human SHISA6 fragment (Lys253–Tyr483), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places protein shisa-6 in the membrane and postsynaptic density. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in the developing ventral mesencephalon. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
