Biological background
VAMP2 (protein: Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 (Lamp2)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Involved in the targeting and/or fusion of transport vesicles to their target membrane. Modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1. . Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein. Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome. Cell membrane . Neuronal synaptic vesicles. Colocalizes with PRKCZ and WDFY2 in intracellular vesicles (PubMed:17313651). . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Nervous system and skeletal muscle. .

- Current studies often focus on connecting target abundance/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.
- Quantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.
- Immunofluorescence/ICC (IF/ICC): visualize subcellular localization patterns and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and compare shifts in marker distributions.
- Immunoprecipitation (IP): enrich target complexes for downstream immunoblot or interaction analyses.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate VAMP2 antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect VAMP2 expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Localize VAMP2 by immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Quantify VAMP2-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions, Enrich VAMP2 by immunoprecipitation from lysates for downstream analysis
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Apparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 68 kDa; calculated MW: 12663 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
