Mouse monoclonal (2A7) antibody to alpha Synuclein.
Specificity
This antibody specifically recognizes alpha Synuclein and also binds human alpha Synuclein containing either the A30P or the A53T Parkinson’s associated mutations. This antibody does not cross-react with beta Synuclein or gamma Synuclein. The epitope is in the region 61-95; which corresponds to the “Non-amyloid beta component of Alzheimer’s disease amyloid”.

Immunofluorescent analysis of rat cerebellum section co-stained with Anti-a-Synuclein Antibody (1:1,000 | red) and Anti-GFAP Antibody (A85419 | 1:5,000 | green). The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. Following transcardial perfusion of rat with 4% paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45µM, and free-floating sections were stained with the above antibodies. The a-synuclein protein is concentrated in synaptic regions, while the Anti-GFAP Antibody stains the filamentous cytoskeleton of Bergmann glia and astrocytic cells.
Western Blot - Anti-alpha Synuclein Antibody [2A7] (A85290)
Western blot analysis of tissue lysates using Anti-a-Synuclein Antibody (1:1,000 | green): [1] protein standard in red, [2] whole rat brain lysate, [3] rat spinal cord lysate. Strong band at about 15kDa corresponds to a-synuclein protein.
Mixed neuron-glial cultures stained with Anti-a-Synuclein Antibody (red) and Anti-MAP2 Antibody (A85363 | green). The Anti-a-Synuclein Antibody stains vesicular structures - the perikarya and processes of the neurons in this image. Note that some of the neuronal perikarya contain much more alpha-synuclein than others. The blue channel shows the localization of DNA.
