IF (Immunofluorescence)

(Immunofluorescent analysis of cortical neuron-glial cell culture from E20 rat embryos stained with rabbit pAb to alphaII-spectrin, AAA76732, dilution 1:500 in green, and costained with mouse mAb to Ankyrin3 in red. The blue is Hoechst staining of nuclear DNA. The spectrin antibody stains submembranous cytoskeleton of neuronal cells. The Ankyrin3 antibody labels axonal initial segments of neurons.)

Related Product Information for anti-SPTAN1 antibody
Spectrin family molecules are important high molecular weight components of the submembranous cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells. These proteins were isolated originally from lysed red blood cell membrane preparations which were named "ghosts", which gave rise to the name spectrin. They function as major components of the membraneous cytoskeleton, mediating interactions between integral membrane proteins, actin and many other cellular components. This antibody binds specifically to alphaII-spectrin, also known as non-erythroid spectrin or fodrin. In the CNS this protein is expressed only in neurons and so the antibody can be used to reveal the submembranous neuronal cytoskeleton in IF, ICC and IHC.

It was made against the recombinant human protein construct derived from the C-terminus of alphaII-spectrin comprising the C-terminal 14 spectrin repeats, specifically amino acids 676-2447. This antibody can be used to study alphaII-spectrin on western blots and to visualize the neuronal plasma membrane cytoskeleton in cells in culture and sectioned material.

Product Notes

The SPTAN1 sptan1 (Catalog #AAA76732) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The alpha-II-Spectrilpha-Fodrin reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat, Bovine and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's alpha-II-Spectrilpha-Fodrin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, IF (Immunofluorescence), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), WB (Western Blot), ICC (Immunocytochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SPTAN1 sptan1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "alpha-II-Spectrin/alpha-Fodrin, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
