General description

AMPA is a transmembrane receptor for glutamate that regulates synapsis in the central nervous system. It is composed of 4 types of subunits, GluR1, 2, 3, 4.
GluR1 subunits of AMPA receptors are membrane proteins that regulate synaptic plasticity of the central nervous system. This receptor has also been implicated in spatial memory retention. Phosphorylation of serine 831 in GluR1 subunit of the AMPA receptor modulates long-term potentiation in neuronal synapses. Anti-phospho-AMPA Receptor, GluR1 Subunit (pSer831) antibody is specific for the GluR1 subunit (phosphorylated on serine 831) of the AMPA receptor in rats and humans.

Immunogen

The GluR1 sequence is conserved among species and has partial homology to VGLUT2.
synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to a region near serine 831 of rat glutamate receptor subunit GluR1.

Application

Anti-phospho-AMPA Receptor, GluR1 Subunit (pSer831) antibody is suitable for use in direct ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunoblot and immunoprecipitation. The antibody may also be used for western blot (1:1,000 using rat hippocampal homogenate).

Physical form

Solution in 10 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.5, containing 150 mM NaCl, 100 μg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol.

Plasticity of the nervous system is dependent on mechanisms that regulate the strength of synaptic transmission. Excitatory synapses in the brain undergo long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD), cellular models of learning and memory. Protein phosphorylation is required for

Activity-dependent changes in excitatory synaptic transmission in the CNS have been shown to depend on the regulation of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid receptors (AMPARs). In particular, several lines of evidence suggest that reversible phosphorylation of AMPAR subunit glutamate receptor 1 (GluR1

The causes of major depression remain unknown. Antidepressants elevate concentrations of monoamines, particularly serotonin, but it remains uncertain which downstream events are critical to their therapeutic effects. We found that endogenous serotonin selectively potentiated excitatory synapses formed by the temporoammonic
