Rabbit polyclonal antibody to CAPS1CAPS1 and its related protein CAPS2 encode novel neural/endocrine-specific cytosolic and peripheral membrane proteins. Both are essential components of the synaptic vesicle priming machinery and are required for the Ca2+-regulated exocytosis of secretory vesicles; CAPS-deficienct neurons contain no or very few fusion competent synaptic vesicles, causing a selective impairment of fast phasic transmitter release. CAPS1 acts at a stage in exocytosis that follows ATP-dependent priming, which involves the essential synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and is thought to be a specific regulator of large dense-core vesicle fusion. Numerous isoforms of CAPS1 are known to exist. This CAPS1 antibody is predicted to be specific to CAPS1 and not recognize CAPS2.
