Product Overview
Clone AAEG-22 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (gene VAMP2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 12.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 16 kDa.
VAMP2 (synaptobrevin-2) is the main vesicular SNARE of synaptic vesicles. It zippers with syntaxin-1 and SNAP-25 into a four-helix bundle that pulls membranes together and drives neurotransmitter release. VAMP2 is a well-known target of botulinum and tetanus toxins and a standard marker in synapse and exocytosis research.

Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Nervous system and skeletal muscle. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
