NLGN2 antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. At least two isoforms are known to exist, this antibody will detect both isoforms. NLGN2 antibody is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the NLGN protein family.
Purification
NLGN2 antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
NLGN2 antibody was raised against a 19 amino acid peptide near the carboxy terminus of human NLGN2.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 630 - 680 of NLGN2.

Neuroligin 2 (NLGN2) is a member of a family of neuronal cell surface proteins that localize to the post-synaptic membrane (1,2). Neuroligins are thought to act as splice site-specific ligands for beta-neurexins and may be involved in the formation and remodeling of central nervous system synapses (2). NLGN2 has been shown to control perisomatic inhibitory synapse maturation together with gephyrin and collybistin, thereby regulating GABA receptor clustering on neurons (3,4). NLGN2 also exhibits differential functions at different types of inhibitory synapses on the same postsynaptic neuron (5).
