Overview
Guinea Pig Anti-Synaptotagmin-1 (SYT1) Antibody is an antibody targeting Synaptotagmin I, SytI, p65, SVP65 Polyclonal raised in Guinea Pig (Unconjugated). This antibody is commonly used in IHC, WB to detect, localize, or compare expression of the target across samples.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: Synaptotagmin I, SytI, p65, SVP65 (also reported as Synaptotagmin I, SytI, p65, SVP65).
- Immunogen/epitope region: Intravesicular, N-terminus.
- Homology note: Mouse - 18 out of 19 amino acid residues identical, human, bovine - 17 out of 19 amino acid residues identical, chicken - 15 out of 19 amino acid residues identical (informative for cross-species interpretation).
- Species reactivity (as provided): Rat, Mouse.
- Lot quality control (as provided): Western blot analysis.
- Peptide confirmation: Confirmed by amino acid analysis and mass spectrometry.
- Blocking peptide: Available for antigen preadsorption control where appropriate.
- Conjugate/format: Unconjugated (may affect detection channel and background).
These attributes help researchers interpret whether signal reflects the intended target in a given assay and sample context.
Biological background
Synaptotagmin 1 is a member of the Ca2+-binding synaptotagmin family of proteins that includes 16 members in vertebrates and is involved in regulated exocytosis and trafficking1,2.Synaptotagmins are type I membrane proteins located in intracellular vesicles and consist of a short N-terminal domain located in the vesicle lumen, a transmembrane domain and a cytosolic domain containing two Ca2+ binding domains1,2.Synaptotagmins are usually localized to distinct secretory vesicles and control their Ca2+-dependent fusion. Synaptotagmin I is predominantly expressed in neuronal cells and is an abundant constituent of synaptic vesicles1,2.Synaptotagmin 1 has a relatively low Ca2+ affinity and is able to bind Ca2+ mostly in the vicinity of Ca2+ channels pores. Indeed, Synaptotagmin 1 has been demonstrated to directly interact with selected Ca2+ channels.
Research relevance and current trends
- Comparing target expression across perturbations, genotypes, or treatment conditions.
- Interpreting localization shifts alongside pathway or phenotypic readouts.
- Using orthogonal controls (KO/KD, peptide competition, isotype concepts) to support conclusions.
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): compare target abundance/size across lysates and conditions; consider isoforms/PTMs.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): examine spatial distribution in tissue and relate signal to cell-type composition.
Interpretation typically benefits from comparing matched sample sets (e.g., treated vs control, WT vs KO/KD) and using orthogonal readouts where feasible.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Isoforms and post-translational modifications can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility across samples.
- Cross-species signal may depend on epitope conservation; consult the provided homology note when selecting models.
- Permeabilization, fixation, and antigen retrieval can change accessibility of intracellular vs extracellular epitopes.
- Conceptual control: antigen preadsorption (blocking peptide) can help assess signal dependence on the immunogen region.
- Provided control suggestions: Negative control: BLP-NR003.
- Application notes: see product-specific dilution/usage notes and control concepts provided in the dataset.
