Biotium Synaptophysin (Neuroendocrine Marker)(SYP/3551), CF680 conjugate, 0.1mg/mL, 500 uL, 1 Each

This monospecific monoclonal antibody recognizes a protein of 38 kDa that is identified as synaptophysin. It is an N-glycosylated integral membrane protein found in neurons and endocrine cells. Synaptophysin contains four transmembrane domains and may function as a gap junction-like channel. This antibody identifies normal neuroendocrine cells and neuroendocrine neoplasms. Diffuse, finely granular, cytoplasmic staining is observed, which probably correlates with the distribution of the antigen within neurosecretory vesicles. Synaptophysin is an independent, broad-range marker of neural and neuroendocrine differentiation. Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF® Dyes and other labels. CF® Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
