Synaptotagmin 1 is a member of the Ca2+-binding synaptotagmin family of proteins that includes 16 members in vertebrates and is involved in regulated exocytosis and trafficking1,2.
Synaptotagmins are type I membrane proteins located in intracellular vesicles and consist of a short N-terminal domain located in the vesicle lumen, a transmembrane domain and a cytosolic domain containing two Ca2+ binding domains1,2.
Synaptotagmins are usually localized to distinct secretory vesicles and control their Ca2+-dependent fusion. Synaptotagmin I is predominantly expressed in neuronal cells and is an abundant constituent of synaptic vesicles1,2.
Synaptotagmin 1 has a relatively low Ca2+ affinity and is able to bind Ca2+ mostly in the vicinity of Ca2+ channels pores. Indeed, Synaptotagmin 1 has been demonstrated to directly interact with selected Ca2+ channels. Synaptotagmin 1 also binds to the t-SNARE protein Syntaxin 1 in a Ca2+-dependent manner thus forming the prototypical Ca2+-dependent fast synaptic vesicle exocytosis protein complex that also includes SNAP-25 and VAMP1,2,3.

Guinea Pig Anti-Synaptotagmin-1 (SYT1) Antibody (#ANR-003-GP) is a highly specific antibody directed against an epitope of the rat protein. The antibody can be used in western blot and immunohistochemistry applications. It has been designed to recognize Synaptotagmin-1 from mouse, rat and human samples.
The antigen used to immunize guinea pigs is the same as Anti-Synaptotagmin-1 (SYT1) Antibody (#ANR-003) raised in rabbit. Our line of guinea pig antibodies enables more flexibility with our products such as multiplex staining studies, immunoprecipitation and more.
