Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human SV2A
Application
Anti-SV2A antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 0.5μg/mL.
Biochem/physiol Actions
SV2A (synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A) gene is a multi-pass membrane protein that belongs to major facilitator superfamily. It regulates the cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels in the nerve terminal during repetitive stimulation and facilitates the synaptic transmission. SV2A serves as a binding site for the antiepileptic drug levetiracetam and may decrease the neuronal excitability. Mutation in SV2A gene results in schizophrenia.

Convergent evidence from pharmacological and animal studies suggests a possible role for the synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A gene (SV2A) in schizophrenia susceptibility. To test systematically all common variants in the SV2A gene region for an association with schizophrenia, we used
Synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) has been identified as the binding site for the antiepileptic drug levetiracetam and is thought to decrease neuronal excitability. Since knockout of SV2A in mice leads to seizures, we hypothesized that a reduction in SV2A
SV2 proteins are abundant synaptic vesicle proteins expressed in two major (SV2A and SV2B) and one minor isoform (SV2C) that resemble transporter proteins. We now show that SV2B knockout mice are phenotypically normal while SV2A- and SV2A/SV2B double knockout mice
