Each order is a unique lot. For specialized requirements, please inquire for available options.

This recombinant antibody is a chimeric antibody created by replacing the mouse heavy and light constant regions of clone L124/59 with chicken IgY heavy and light constant regions. As such this antibody retains the same binding performance as the original clone L124/59 but can be detected using standard anti-chicken secondary antibodies allowing flexibility for multiplexing applications. This antibody is expressed recombinantly in HEK293 cells and then affinity purified from the cell culture media and conjugated.

Background: Bassoon

Bassoon is a 420 kDa protein that is a localized at the presynaptic nerve terminals and is believed to play a role in the structural and functional organization of the synaptic vesicle cycle (1-3). Bassoon does not belong to any known protein families. It has been found in rat and mouse with sequence identity of the two proteins at 96% (1). The human BASSOON gene has recently been cloned and localized (3). Bassoon is predicted to contain two double-zinc fingers, three coiled-coil regions, and two polyglutamine domains (1). The polyglutamine domains in the C-terminus are of interest, since it is known that for some human proteins, such as Huntingtin, abnormal amplification of this region can cause late-onset neurodegeneration (1,3). Bassoon is concentrated at sites opposite to postsynaptic densities in synaptic terminals and in cultured neurons, it is found to colocalize with GABA (A) and glutamate (GluR1) receptors (2). Another presynaptic protein, Piccolo (4) was found to colocalize with Bassoon in cultured hippocampal neurons (1). These observations suggested that they serve specific functions at synaptic junctions and may be involved in organization of the cytoskeleton at the site of neurotransmitter release (1).
