Synaptotagmin is widely regarded as the primary calcium sensor for synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Moreover recent studies indicate that the protein also plays a key role in endocytosis. Synaptotagmin can be phosphorylated by multiple protein kinases and this may play a key role in modulation of synaptotagmin ability to influence both the exocytotic and endocytotic components of synaptic transmission.1) Poskanzer, K.E., Marek, K.W., Sweeney, S.T. and Davis, G.W., "Synaptotagmin I is necessary for compensatory synaptic vesicle endocytosis in vivo," Nature (London) 426 (2003) 559 - 563.
Immunogen
Synaptotagmin (Ser309) polyclonal antibody was raised against a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acids residues surrounding the phospho Ser309 of synaptotagmin.
Modification
p-Ser309
Key Feature
Clonality
Polyclonal
Host Species
Rabbit
Tested Applications
IHCWB
Applications include Dot Blots (DB) and Western Blots (WB). Suitability for Immunohistochemistry (IHC) has not yet been determined. Human, mouse, and rat have 100% amino acid sequence identity with the antigen used to raise the antibody. When internally tested under ideal conditions the working dilutions were 1:1000 for DB and WB.:

Additional Information
Form
Liquid
Storage Instructions
For long term storage –80˚C is recommended, but shorter term storage at –20˚C is also acceptable as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to the presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for one year.
Storage Buffer
100 uL in 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 ug per mL BSA and 50% glycerol.
