Descripción

General description

α-SNAP is 80% homologous to β-SNAP and is expressed in all mammalian tissues, whereas β-SNAP is expressed only in brain.

αSNAP (α-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion (NSF) attachment protein) is widely present and abundantly expressed in all tissues. It is located on human chromosome 19q13.32. βSNAP (β-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion (NSF) attachment protein) is expressed only in neuronal tissues and is located on human chromosome 20p11.21.

Specificity

Anti-α/β-SNAP (KS-18) recognizes α/β-SNAP.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide encoding amino acids 140-157 located near the mid-region of mouse α-SNAP, conjugated to KLH. The sequence is identical in human, rat, and bovine α-SNAP and in human, mouse, rat and bovine β-SNAP.

Application

Anti-α/β-SNAP (140-157) antibody produced in rabbit may be used in immunoblotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

α-SNAP binding to the soluble NSF attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex, recruits NSF to form a 20S complex. ATP hydrolysis by NSF ATPase activity induces disassembly of the 20S complex, thus facilitating vesicle fusion to the membrane and exocytosis.

α-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion (NSF) attachment protein (α-SNAP) is an essential constituent of the membrane fusion machinery. It plays an important role in insulin exocytosis through large dense core vesicles. In human epithelia, absence of αSNAP promotes non-canonical autophagy. α-SNAP and NSF are highly essential in the initial stage of human sperm acrosome reaction.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Storage in "frost-free" freezers is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
