      Product Notices

      1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
      2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
      3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
      4. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

      31/Munc-18

      There are two Munc-18 isoforms: Munc-18-1 and Munc-18-2. Munc-18-1 (n-sec1 or rb-sec1; 68 kDa) is a neuronal protein that binds tightly to syntaxin 1 and functions in synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Munc-18-2 exhibits 63% amino acid sequence identity with Munc-18-1. Although Munc-18-2 is expressed in most tissues, Munc-18-1 is primarily expressed in brain. Both forms of Munc-18 bind tightly to syntaxins 1A, 2, and 3, but not to syntaxin 4. Syntaxin 1A is a plasma membrane protein implicated in synaptic vesicle docking. Following calcium entry into the presynaptic nerve terminal, the neurotransmitter-containing synaptic vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane at a region known as the active zone. Thus, by virtue of its interaction with syntaxin 1A, Munc-18-1 is thought to have an essential function in neurotransmitter release.

      Purified
      Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
