This antibody reacts with Synaptotagmin 1 and 2 (58 kDa/60 kDa) on Western blotting. Synaptotagmin 1 has a predicted molecular weight of 47 kDa but it migrates at ~65 kDa. It is reported that this clone (1D12) recognizes rat synaptotagmin residues (99-104 aa) in the reference number 17).
Optimal working dilution should be determined by the investigator.

Background
Synaptotagmins are a family of at least 15 Ca2+-binding, membrane-trafficking proteins that act as calcium sensors regulating neurotransmitter release. Synaptotagamins are expressed in both vesicular and plasma membranes where they are involved in lipid rearrangements required during synaptic vesicle fusion. Synaptotagmins also interact with calcium channels, sodium channels, b-SNAP, neurexins, and other neural proteins in the absence of Ca2+, suggesting a role in presynaptic functions. Synaptotagmins exhibit differential expression, with synaptotagmins 1-5 expressed primarily in neural and endocrine tissues. Northern blots in murine brain tissue suggest synaptotagmin 1 is primarily expressed in rostral brain regions but has low expression in regions related to motor functions.Synonyms: SVP65, SYT, SYT2, Synaptotagmin I, Synaptotagmin II, Synaptotagmin1, Synaptotagmin2, Synonyms: SYT1, SytI, SytII, p65
