General description
alpha-Synuclein is a small (140 amino acid) cytoplasmic protein of unclear function that is enriched in presynaptic terminals and is the precursor protein of a nonamyloid beta component of senile plaques in Alzeheimer′s Disease (AD). α-Synuclein is located predominantly in the presynaptic nerve terminals in the brain but is also found in low concentrations in all tissues except liver. Recent studies have shown that abnormal aggregation and accumulation of synaptic proteins, including α-Synuclein might be associated with plaque formation in AD and seems to be a major component of Lewy bodies in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). It has also been identified in the Glial Cytoplasmic Inclusions (GCIs) found in Multiple System Atrophy (MSA).
~14-19 kDa
Immunogen
Epitope: a.a. 111-131
Human alpha-synuclein residue 111-131 coupled to KLH.
Application
Anti-Synuclein Antibody, α detects level of Synuclein & has been published & validated for use in IC, IH, IH(P) & WB.
Immunohistochemistry:
1:1,000-1:2,000 dilutoin of a previous lot was used on paraffin sections; 1:4,000-1:12,000 dilution of a previous lot was used on frozen sections.
Western blot:
1:1,000-1:2,000. Shows a 14-19kDa band.
Immunocytochemistry:
Previous lot used IC.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Alpha-synuclein. The immunizing peptide was chosen to reduce cross-reactivity of AB5038 with β-synuclein to a minimum. Immunohistochemical and Western blot analysis of human brain indicates a high level of specificity.
Has not been tested on other species.
Physical form
Rabbit polyclonal serum lyophilized, no preservatives. Reconstitute with 50 μL of sterile distilled water. Centrifuge to remove any residue.
Analysis Note
Control
Human brain sections.
Human brain sections.
Evaluated by Western Blot on Human Brain lysates.
Western Blot Analysis:
1:1000 dilution of this antibody detected Synuclein on 10 µg of human brain lysates.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder whose diagnosis is often challenging because symptoms may overlap with neurodegenerative parkinsonisms. PD is characterized by intraneuronal accumulation of abnormal α-synuclein in brainstem while neurodegenerative parkinsonisms might be associated with accumulation of either
