Anti-Dopamine Transporter, Extracellular Loop 2 antibody produced in rabbit

Immunogen

synthetic peptide from the extracellular loop 2 region of human dopamine transporter.

Application

Anti-Dopamine Transporter, Extracellular Loop 2 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable at a working dilution of 1:1000 for western blotting using SDS-solubilized human striatal samples and for immunohistochemistry using formaldehyde-fixed human and monkey brain sections.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The dopamine transporter (DAT1) acts to take released dopamine back up into presynaptic terminals and has been implicated in human disorders such as parkinsonism, Tourette syndrome, and substance abuse. DAT1 gene is a primary target gene for ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). DAT polymorphism along with maternal prenatal smoking is associated with childhood hyperactivity-impulsivity and inattentiveness.
