This Tyrosine Hydroxylase antibody is un-conjugated
应用范围
Western Blotting (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (Frozen Sections) (IHC (fro))
特异性
Specific for the ~60k Tyrosine Hydroxylase protein phosphorylated at Ser40. Some higher Molecular Weight bands may be detected by the antibody depending upon the brain region being studied, protein loads and the detection methods used. The antibody has three orders of magnitude selectivity over dephospho TH.
交叉反应 (详细)
Species reactivity (tested):Many Mammalian and Non-mammalian.
纯化方法
Affinity Chromatography via Sequential Chromatography on phospho- and dephosphopeptide affinity columns.
免疫原
Phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding the phospho-Ser40 of Rat Tyrosine Hydroxylase.

Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of the catecholamines Dopamine and Norepinephrine. TH antibodies can therefore be used as markers for dopaminergic and noradrenergic neurons in a variety of applications including depression, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease and drug abuse (Kish et al., 2001, Zhu et al., 2000, Zhu et al., 1999). TH antibodies can also be used to explore basic mechanisms of dopamine and norepinephrine signaling (Witkovsky et al., 2000, Salvatore et al., 2001, Dunkley et al., 2004). The activity of TH is also regulated by phosphorylation (Haycock et al., 1982, Haycock et al., 1992, Jedynak et al., 2002). Phospho-specific antibodies for the phosphorylation sites on TH can be used to great effect in studying this regulation and in identifying the cells in which TH phosphorylation occurs.Synonyms: TYH, Tyrosine 3-hydroxylase
