ANTI-PAN NEUREXIN-1 (C15-1317-390)

General description

Neurexin-1 (UniProt Q9CS84; also known as Neurexin I-alpha, Neurexin-1-alpha) is encoded by the Nrxn1 (also known as Kiaa0578) gene (Gene ID 18189) in murine species. Neurexin (NRXN) is a presynaptic single pass transmembrane protein that assists in joining neurons together at the synapse. Neurexins mediate signaling across the synapse and neural networks by specifying synpatic function. Mutations in the genes encoding for neurexins are implicated in autism, schizphrenia, and nicotine dependence. There are two classifications of neurexins, α-NRXNs and β-NRXNs. The α-NRXNs are larger and have different amino-terminal extracellular sequences than β-NRXNs. β-NRXNs act as receptors for neuroligin and have been found to play a role in angiogenesis.

Specificity

Expected to react with all neurexin-1-alpha and neurexin-1-beta spliced isoforms of murine, human, and rat species, as this polyclonal antibody targets the C-terminal end cytoplasmic sequence that is not affected by alternative splicings (Missler, M., and Südhof, T.C. (1998). Trends Genet. 14(1):20-26). Cross-reactivities toward alpha and beta isoforms of neurexin-2 and neurexin-3 are also likely, although the C-termminal sequence is not 100% conserved among neurexin-1, neurexin-2 and neurexin-3.
