Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab51253 in the following tested applications.

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

Application	Abreviews	Notes
IHC-FrFl		1/5000.
WB		1/1000 - 1/5000. Detects a band of approximately 18 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 14 kDa).Can be blocked with Alpha-synuclein (phospho S129) peptide (ab188826). Good results have been obtained by treating the membrane with 0.4% PFA for 30 min at room temperature before blocking it with 5% milk.
Dot blot		Use at an assay dependent concentration.
ELISA		Use at an assay dependent concentration.
IHC-P		Use a concentration of 5 - 10 µg/ml. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with citrate buffer pH 6 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
ICC/IF		Use at an assay dependent concentration.

Application notes

Is unsuitable for Flow Cyt,IHC-Fr or IP.

Function

May be involved in the regulation of dopamine release and transport. Induces fibrillization of microtubule-associated protein tau. Reduces neuronal responsiveness to various apoptotic stimuli, leading to a decreased caspase-3 activation.
Tissue specificity

Expressed principally in brain but is also expressed in low concentrations in all tissues examined except in liver. Concentrated in presynaptic nerve terminals.
Involvement in disease

Genetic alterations of SNCA resulting in aberrant polymerization into fibrils, are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases (synucleinopathies). SNCA fibrillar aggregates represent the major non A-beta component of Alzheimer disease amyloid plaque, and a major component of Lewy body inclusions. They are also found within Lewy body (LB)-like intraneuronal inclusions, glial inclusions and axonal spheroids in neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation type 1.
Parkinson disease 1
Parkinson disease 4
Dementia Lewy body
Sequence similarities

Belongs to the synuclein family.
Domain

The 'non A-beta component of Alzheimer disease amyloid plaque' domain (NAC domain) is involved in fibrils formation. The middle hydrophobic region forms the core of the filaments. The C-terminus may regulate aggregation and determine the diameter of the filaments.
Post-translational
modifications

Phosphorylated, predominantly on serine residues. Phosphorylation by CK1 appears to occur on residues distinct from the residue phosphorylated by other kinases. Phosphorylation of Ser-129 is selective and extensive in synucleinopathy lesions. In vitro, phosphorylation at Ser-129 promoted insoluble fibril formation. Phosphorylated on Tyr-125 by a PTK2B-dependent pathway upon osmotic stress.
Hallmark lesions of neurodegenerative synucleinopathies contain alpha-synuclein that is modified by nitration of tyrosine residues and possibly by dityrosine cross-linking to generated stable oligomers.
Ubiquitinated. The predominant conjugate is the diubiquitinated form.
Acetylation at Met-1 seems to be important for proper folding and native oligomeric structure.
Cellular localization

Cytoplasm, cytosol. Membrane. Nucleus. Cell junction, synapse. Secreted. Membrane-bound in dopaminergic neurons.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Alpha-synuclein (phospho S129) antibody [EP1536Y] (ab51253)

IHC image of alpha Synuclein (phospho S129) staining Human Parkinson Substantia Nigra tissue section*, previously antigen was retrieved by heat mediated with citrate buffer pH 6, fixed in formalin and embedded in paraffin. This section was incubated with ab51253 at 10 µg/mL for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. DAB was used as the chromogen. Counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset negative control image is taken from an identical assay performed on Human normal Substantia Nigra.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Question

1) Could this product recognize rat samples or not though it is written "Does not react with Rat" on your data sheet?

2) What rat samples did you test?

Thank you.

Abcam community

Verified customer

Asked on Jun 25 2013

Answer

1)Our initial testing with rat showed negative and that the antibody is not recommended for use in rat. However, based on sequence analysis, it shares 100% identity with rat.

2)We previously tested rat brain, heart, kidney and spleen tissues lyates.

Question

We acctually do have problems with your antibody, but it's from a different batch (Lot.No. GR93844). We tried both Western blot and immunofluorecens (whole primary neurons grown on coverslips) but so far nothing has worked. A collegue of ours here at Lund University recommended this antibody and the plan is to next week try some of his batch to see if it works or if it's our samples that are the problem. Please let me know if others have problem with the same batch we got or we will continue to test it asap.

Question

Bonjour,

Je vous remercie pour votre réponse qui explicite les soucis que nous avons rencontrés récemment.

Nous avons eu ce problème de faible réactivité avec les 2 derniers tubes, ainsi qu’un autre reçu précédemment.

D’autre part, il y avait eu également une rupture de stock dû à des problèmes de production et/ou qualité l’année dernière qui avait perturbé durablement notre activité de recherche avec cet anticorps sur lequel nous comptions.

En conclusion, nous souhaiterions pouvoir bénéficier de l’envoi gratuit de 3 tubes, car il est plus compliqué de disposer d’avoir au niveau de la comptabilité.

Nous formulons le souhait d’une qualité stable des prochains lots de cet anticorps, que nous allons sans doute être obligés de vérifier à réception.

En cas de variation de sensibilité de l’anticorps observé dans votre laboratoire, nous serions intéressés d’avoir cette information en amont, avant de le découvrir par nous même.

Bien cordialement,

Answer

Merci pour votre réponse.

Nous sommes très désolé de cette inconvenance. Veuillez croire que la qualité de nos produits est très important pour nous. J'ai transmis votre feedback aussi au laboratoire.

Nous avons actuellement trois autres tube du même lot en stock. Est-ce que ce lot vous convient et est-ce que vous souhaitez trois tubes de celui-ci? Autrement, je peux aussi vous envoyer des anticorps alternatives, contre une autre protéine,si vous souhaitez. Vous avez le droit à trois tubes d'anticorps et c'est votre choix lesquels vous souhaitez.

Veuillez ne pas hésiter à me recontacter si vous avez des questions. Je me réjouis de votre réponse
