Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab199777 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab199777, 1/50 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit monoclonal IgG [EPR25A] Alexa Fluor® 488 (ab199091) used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

ab199777 staining Ionotropic Glutamate receptor 2 in SKNSH cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab199777 at 1/100 dilution (shown in green) and ab195889, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 594), at 2μg/ml (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Biological function summary
Ion channels like GluR2 contribute to the regulation of synaptic plasticity. GluR2 often forms heteromeric complexes with other AMPA receptor subunits like GluR1 GluR3 and GluR4. These combinations determine the calcium permeability of the receptor complex which has implications for synaptic strength and plasticity. Such properties make GluR2 vital for memory formation and learning given its role in modifying synaptic responses based on neural activity.
Pathways
GluR2 engages significantly in synaptic signaling pathways. It takes part in the AMPA receptor trafficking pathway which dictates its movement to and from the synaptic membrane. GluR2 along with its related proteins like GRIA1 controls the flow of ions that are important for neurotransmission. Another important pathway involving GluR2 is the regulation of excitatory postsynaptic potentials. This function links GluR2 to various cellular processes that respond to neural activity changes.
