Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab2723 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Interacts with the cytoplasmic tail of NMDA receptor subunits and shaker-type potassium channels. Required for synaptic plasticity associated with NMDA receptor signaling. Overexpression or depletion of DLG4 changes the ratio of excitatory to inhibitory synapses in hippocampal neurons. May reduce the amplitude of ACCN3 acid-evoked currents by retaining the channel intracellularly. May regulate the intracellular trafficking of ADR1B.

Tissue specificity

Brain.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the MAGUK family.
Contains 1 guanylate kinase-like domain.
Contains 3 PDZ (DHR) domains.
Contains 1 SH3 domain.

Domain

The PDZ domain 3 mediates interaction with ADR1B.
The L27 domain near the N-terminus of isoform 2 is required for HGS/HRS-dependent targeting to post-synaptic density.

Post-translational
modifications

Palmitoylation of isoform 1 is required for targeting to postsynaptic density.

Cellular localization

Cell membrane. Cell junction > synapse > postsynaptic cell membrane > postsynaptic density. Cell junction > synapse. Cell junction > synapse > synaptosome. High levels in postsynaptic density of neurons in the forebrain. Also in presynaptic region of inhibitory synapses formed by cerebellar basket cells on axon hillocks of Purkinje cells.

Flow Cytometry - PSD95 antibody [6G6-1C9] (ab2723)

Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab2723 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab2723, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2a [ICIGG2A] (ab91361, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.
Please note that Abcam do not have data for use of this antibody on non-fixed cells. We welcome any customer feedback.

ab2723 at 1/200 staining rat primary hippocampal neurons by ICC/IF. The cells were paraformaldehyde fixed and then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 before being stained with the antibody for 1 hour. An Alexa-Fluor ® 594 conjugated goat polyclonal antibody was used as the secondary.

The antibody shows numerous puncta along the shafts.
