Overview
Anti-SV2A Antibody Picoband® is an antibody for SV2A detection raised in Rabbit (Polyclonal, Rabbit IgG), with reported reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat. Commonly used in WB, IHC, Flow Cytometry, ELISA workflows.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: SV2A (solute carrier family 5 member 2); UniProt: Q7L0J3
- Antibody format: Rabbit, Polyclonal, Rabbit IgG
- Molecular weight: 110 kDa
- Applications: WB, IHC, Flow Cytometry, ELISA
Vendor description (summary): Boster Bio Anti-SV2A Antibody Picoband® catalog # A03752-3.
Biological background
Biological context: Sodium-dependent glucose transporter. Has a Na+ to glucose coupling ratio of 1:1. Efficient substrate transport in mammalian kidney is provided by the concerted action of a low affinity high capacity and a high affinity low capacity Na+/glucose cotransporter arranged in series along kidney proximal tubules.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Membrane. Multi-pass membrane protein..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare SV2A levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of SV2A in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify SV2A-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A is a ubiquitous synaptic vesicle protein that in humans is encoded by the SV2A gene. The protein encoded by this gene is one of three related synaptic vesicle proteins. The encoded protein may interact with synaptotagmin to enhance low frequency neurotransmission in quiescent neurons.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Membrane. Multi-pass membrane protein.
- Research category: Cancer,Channels,Metabolism,Plasma Membrane,Signal Transduction
