Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. EAT-4 (C. elegans) control/blocking peptide # 1 EAT45-P

EAT-4 (C. elegans) control/blocking peptide # 1 General Information Glutamate is the main excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. To date five glutamate Transporters have been cloned: GLAST (EAAT1), GLT1 (EAAT2), EAAC1 (EAAT3), EAAT4, and EAAT5. These transporters are believed to be critical in reducing potentially t SugApplications Control or blocking peptides are recommended for ELISA plate coating for direct ELISA testing of antibodies or competitive ELISA, and antibody blocking or neutralization. SpeciesReactivity C. elegans Form Antigen/blocking Peptide Antigen An 18 AA synthetic peptide (designated EAT45-P; control peptide. synthesized, conjugated toKLH. Epitope location~N-terminus of C. elegans EAT-4 SpCrossreactivity The EAT45-P peptide has no significant sequence with mammalian VGLUT1/2 or other NaPi-related (Type-1 to Type-III) transporters. Antibody crossreactivity in various species is not established For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
