Further Information

Application Note:
The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in rat tissue. It is anticipated that the antibody will also work with human and mouse based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen.
Background:
NSF (N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein) is a critical component of the SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptors) protein complex that is involved in synaptic vesicle trafficking. Specifically, NSF has been found to be essential in membrane fusion. Furthermore, NSF has been recently demonstrated to bind other protein complexes such as AMPA receptor subunits (GluR2), GATE-16, LMA-1 and Rabs suggesting a more diverse role in the assembly of various protein complexes (Whiteheart et al., 2004).
