Rabbit antibody to AMPA 3

FUNCTION: Ionotropic glutamate receptor. L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system. Binding of the excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamate induces a conformation change, leading to the opening of the cation channel, and thereby converts the chemical signal to an electrical impulse. The receptor then desensitizes rapidly and enters a transient inactive state, characterized by the presence of bound agonist.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell junction a€C synapse a€C postsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

IHC, WB. A dilution of 1 : 1000 to 1 : 2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not yet tested in other applications.

A synthetic peptide from the c-terminal region of mouse Glutamate receptor 3 (AMPA 3) conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in rat and human.
