IHC image of Bassoon/BSN staining in Human normal cerebral cortex formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab82958, 5μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

This image was generated using the ascites version of the product.

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.

Supplementary information

Bassoon also known as BSN or Bassoon protein functions as a major component in the active zone of synapses participating in the organization and regulation of neurotransmitter release. The protein has a reported molecular mass of approximately 420 kDa. Expression of the Bassoon protein takes place prominently in neuronal tissues especially within the central nervous system. Its structure and size contribute to its role in maintaining the integrity of synaptic architecture.
Biological function summary

Bassoon plays an important role in the presynaptic active zone by facilitating efficient synaptic vesicle docking and priming. It acts as a scaffold protein within the presynaptic terminal forming part of a larger molecular complex that includes Piccolo and other cytomatrix proteins. These scaffolding arrangements help ensure precise neurotransmitter release affecting synaptic strength and plasticity. Its integration into these complexes highlights its significance in neuronal communication and functionality.

Pathways

Bassoon actively participates in neurotransmission pathways especially those related to synaptic vesicle cycle and neurotransmitter release. It collaborates with proteins like RIM and Munc13 in these processes stabilizing the apparatus required for synaptic vesicle fusion and exocytosis. Through these interactions Bassoon contributes to the regulation of neurotransmitter release and is essential for proper synaptic function.

Bassoon links to various neurological conditions prominently neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease and bipolar disorder. Changes in Bassoon expression or function could disrupt synaptic integrity thereby contributing to disease pathology. Research has associated alterations in calcium channel complexes which involve Bassoon with these disorders. Understanding Bassoon's molecular interactions may provide insights into the development and progression of such neurological diseases highlighting its significance in biomedical research.

Target data

Scaffold protein of the presynaptic cytomatrix at the active zone (CAZ) which is the place in the synapse where neurotransmitter is released (PubMed : 12812759). After synthesis, participates in the formation of Golgi-derived membranous organelles termed Piccolo-Bassoon transport vesicles (PTVs) that are transported along axons to sites of nascent synaptic contacts (PubMed : 19380881). At the presynaptic active zone, regulates the spatial organization of synaptic vesicle cluster, the protein complexes that execute membrane fusion and compensatory endocytosis (By similarity). Functions also in processes other than assembly such as the regulation of specific presynaptic protein ubiquitination by interacting with SIAH1 or the regulation of presynaptic autophagy by associating with ATG5 (By similarity). Mediates also synapse to nucleus communication leading to reconfiguration of gene expression by associating with the transcriptional corepressor CTBP1 and by subsequently reducing the size of its pool available for nuclear import (By similarity). Inhibits the activity of the proportion of DAO enzyme that localizes to the presynaptic active zone, which may modulate synaptic transmission (By similarity).
