Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Syntaxin 1a, different from the related mouse and rat sequences by one amino acid.
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 37 kDa; calculated MW: 33023 MW
- Reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat
- Applications: WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
Syntaxin-1A; Syntaxin-1A. Syntaxin-1A is a member of the syntaxin superfamily. Syntaxins are nervous system-specific proteins implicated in the docking of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic plasma membrane. Syntaxins possess a single C-terminal transmembrane domain, a SNARE [Soluble NSF (N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein)-Attachment protein REceptor] domain (known as H3), and an N-terminal regulatory domain (Habc). Syntaxins bind synaptotagminin a calcium-dependent fashion and interact with voltage dependent calcium and potassium channels via the C-terminal H3 domain. Syntaxin-1A is a key protein in ion channel regulation and synaptic exocytosis. Functional note: Plays a role in hormone and neurotransmitter exocytosis (By similarity). Potentially involved in docking of synaptic vesicles at presynaptic active zones. May mediate Ca (2+)- regulation of exocytosis acrosomal reaction in sperm. . Reported localization: Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane ; Single-pass type IV membrane protein . Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome . Cell membrane . Colocalizes with KCNB1 at the cell membrane. . Expression/tissue context: Isoform 1 is highly expressed in embryonic spinal chord and ganglia and in adult cerebellum and cerebral cortex. Isoform 2 is expressed in heart, liver, fat, skeletal muscle, kidney and brain. .
Research relevance and current trends
- Vesicle Transport: Researchers commonly examine how STX1A (Syntaxin-1A) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative STX1A (Syntaxin-1A) levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Specificity notes: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Cross-reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Family / similarity context: Belongs to the syntaxin family.
- Isoforms and PTMs: Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.
- Controls: Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD/KO samples when available.
