Other Names | Sodium-dependent dopamine transporter, DA transporter, DAT, Solute carrier family 6 member 3, SLC6A3, DAT1 |
Target/Specificity | ABD11073 recognises extracellular loop 2 of the human dopamine transporter (DAT). DAT is a Na+/Cl- dependent transport protein that is responsible for clearing synaptic dopamine by transporting it into neurons. The protein is implicated in a number of dopamine-related disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Parkinson’s disease, depression and drug abuse. DAT consists of 12 transmembrane domains connected by intra- and extracellular loops. The largest, extracellular loop 2, occurs between transmembrane domains 3 and 4 and contains N-linked carbohydrates and a putative disulfide bond. It is the site on the DAT protein that is most sensitive to proteolysis. |
Preservative & Stabilisers | 0.09% Sodium Azide; 0.01% Bovine Serum Albumin; 50% Glycerol |
Storage | Store at +4℃ or at -20 ℃. |
Precautions | Anti-Human Dopamine Transporter (Extracellular Loop 2) Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
