Anti-Vesicular Glutamate Transporter 2 Antibody, Alexa Fluor^™ 488 | MAB5504A4

The unconjugated parent antibody (Cat. No. MAB5504) has an observed molecular weight at ~56 kDa

Vesicular Glutamate Transporter 2 (VGLUT2) is a sodium dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter that is involved in the calcium dependent glutamate release from astrocytes. It is expressed in only a subset of neurons, localized to synaptic vesicles, at synapses exhibiting classical excitatory features. VGLUT2 mRNA is found in brain regions that lack VGLUT1, a related protein also displaying sodium dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter activity.

Recombinant protein from rat VGLUT2.
