Applications

The Abpromise guarantee

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.

Application Abreviews Notes
IHC-P
Use a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

We do not guarantee IHC-P for mouse.

WB (7)
Use a concentration of 1 - 5 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 95 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 80 kDa).

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 ASIC3 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 postsynaptic 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 projection, axon. Cell junction, synapse. 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.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-PSD95 antibody [6G6-1C9] - Synaptic Marker (ab2723)

    IHC image of ab2723 staining in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded rat retinal tissue, performed on a Leica BONDTM 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 ab2723, 2µg/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 hematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

    Secondary-only control image is shown as insert.

    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.

Will PSD95 expression be altered if toxicity is increased in the cells?

Asked on Jun 09 2012

Answer

We do not know how PSD95 expression would be affected if toxicity is increased in cells. We encourage customers to consult the latest literature available through PubMed and other resources in order to find the most up-to-date information about their specific research interests.

Question

Inquiry: We are looking for a loading control for our western blots that is at a minimum 75kDa in size (preferably over 100kDa). Is there anything you could recommend? Our cell type is mouse neurons.

Asked on Jun 09 2012

Answer

Thank you for contacting Abcam.

In mouse neurons an alternative to the smaller housekeeping proteins such as beta-actin, or GAPDH commonly used as loading control would be to use synaptic markers such as PSD95 or Piccolo.

In western blot I would recommend use of anti-PSD95 antibodieshttps://www.abcam.com/PSD95-antibody-Synaptic-Marker-ab18258.htmlorhttps://www.abcam.com/PSD95-antibody-6G6-1C9-ab2723.htmlwhich will give you band above your threshold size at 95kDA.

Should you want bands with an even higher molecular weight Piccolo has a predicted size at 540kDA, our producthttps://www.abcam.com/Piccolo-antibody-Synaptic-Marker-ab20664.htmlis, like the above PSD95 antibodies, guaranteed to work on mouse samples in Western blot.



I hope that this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any questions or there are other ways that Abcam may help you meet your research goals.
