solute carrier family 17 (sodium-dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter)
Solute carrier family 17 member 7
VGLUT1
VGLUT1vesicular glutamate transporter 1
Background
VGLUT1 is expressed in a subset of glutamate neurons and transports glutamate into native synaptic vesicles from the brain, exhibiting a conductance for chloride that is blocked by glutamate. Vesicular glutamate transport has a substantially lower apparent affinity than the plasma membrane excitatory amino acid transporters. Glutamate transport by VGLUT1 is saturated with a K(m) of approximately 2 mM, in the same range as transport by synaptic vesicles. Finally, plasma membrane glutamate transporters recognize both aspartate and glutamate as substrates, whereas VGLUT1 does not recognize aspartate.
Limitations
This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
Single cell suspensions were prepared from mouse brain from 1 year old 5xFAD mice using enzymatic digestion and a 27% percoll gradient to clear myelin. Cells were then stained for CD45 and CD11b, fixed and permeabilized, and then stained with the ant-vglut1 antibody for 30 minutes at room temperature. ***Bio-Techne Response: This review was submitted through the legacy Novus Innovators Program, reflecting a new species or application tested on a primary antibody.***
