Description

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

Synonyms

BEGAIN; BEGIN; Brain enriched guanylate kinase associated protein; Brain-enriched guanylate kinase-associated homolog rat; KIAA1446; SAP90/PSD95 Associated Proteins; SAPAP; BEGIN_HUMAN.

About

Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera.

Cross Reactive Species details

No significant cross reactivity has been observed for this antibody for the tested species. However, note that due to limited knowledge it is impossible to predict with 100% guarantee that the antibody does not corss react with any other species.

Advisory

Avoid freeze/thaw cycles as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody, thus reducing its reactivity, specificity and sensitivity. For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube. Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom.

Background information

BEGAIN is a 593 amino acid protein that localizes to cytoplasm and membrane. BEGAIN interacts with PSD-95 and SAPAP1 and forms a ternary complex and may sustain the structure of the postsynaptic density (PSD). BEGAIN is a novel PSD component associated with the core complex of PSD-95 and SAPAP. Because BEGAIN and SAPAP interact with the same region of PSD-95, BEGAIN and SAPAP may compete for the binding to PSD-95 and cannot interact with PSD-95 simultaneously. The C-terminal region of BEGAIN is involved in the interaction with PSD-95 whereas the N-terminal region has a coiled-coil structure that may interact with other molecules. BEGAIN is specifically expressed in brain and enriched in the PSD fraction. BEGAIN is also expressed in neurons and enriched at synaptic junctions, and is likely involved in the organization of synaptic junction components.
