Direct ELISA of purified anti-α-Synuclein Phospho (Tyr39) antibody (clone A15119B) binding to plate-immobilized recombinant human unmodified and pY39 and pY125 α-synuclein proteins. ELISA was performed by coating wells with 150 ng of each recombinant α-synuclein protein. The wells were then incubated with the primary antibody at 37°C for one hour, followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody. TMB (3, 3', 5, 5' tetramethylbenzidine, Cat. No. 421501) was used as the detection system. -
Western blot of purified anti-α-Synuclein, 80-96 antibody (clone A15115A), and isotype-matched IgG1 control, demonstrating the binding specificity of clone A15115A to endogenous and recombinant human α-synuclein. Lane 1: 50 ng of recombinant human α-synuclein; Lane 2: 50 ng of recombinant human pS87 α-synuclein; Lane 3: 25 µg of normal human brain lysate. The blots were incubated with 1.0 µg/mL of clone A15115A or mouse IgG1, κ at room temperature for two hours, followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody. Enhanced chemiluminescence was used as the detection system. -
IHC staining of α-synuclein deposits with purified anti-α-Synuclein, C-Terminal Truncated antibody (clone A15127A) on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded Parkinson's disease brain tissue. Following antigen retrieval using 70% formic acid, the tissue was incubated with the primary antibody at 5 µg/mL overnight at 4°C. BioLegend's Ultra-Streptavidin (USA) HRP kit was used for detection followed by hematoxylin counterstaining, according to the protocol provided. -
Direct ELISA of purified anti-α-Synuclein, C-Terminal Truncated antibody (clone A15127A) binding to plate-immobilized recombinant human full-length (1-140) and C-terminally fragmented (1-122) α-synuclein. ELISA was performed by coating wells with 150 ng of each recombinant α-synuclein protein. The wells were then incubated with the primary antibody at 37°C for one hour, followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody. TMB (3, 3', 5, 5' tetramethylbenzidine, Cat. No. 421501) was used as the detection system. -
IHC staining of purified anti-α-Synuclein Phospho (Ser129) antibody (clone P-syn/81A) on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded diseased human brain tissue. Following antigen retrieval using 70% formic acid for 20 minutes at room temperature, the tissue was incubated with 1 µg/ml of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. BioLegend´s Ultra-Streptavidin (USA) HRP kit (Multi-Species, DAB, Cat. No. 929901) was used for detection followed by hematoxylin counterstaining, according to the protocol provided. The image was captured with a 40X objective. -
Western blot of anti-α-Synuclein antibody (clone A15126D) and isotype-matched IgG2b control, binding to endogenous and recombinant human α-synuclein. Lane 1: 50 ng of recombinant human α-synuclein; Lane 2: 50 ng of recombinant C-terminally truncated human α-synuclein (1-122). Lane 3: 20 µg of normal human brain lysate. The blots were incubated with 1 µg/ml of cloneA15126D or mouse IgG22, κ at room temperature for two hours, followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (clone Poly4053). Enhanced chemiluminescence was used as the detection system.

α-Synuclein is expressed principally in the nervous system, but it is also produced in other tissues, including the skin. In the brain, the protein is primarily neuronal, but it is also present in glia. Neuronal α-Synuclein is concentrated in presynaptic nerve terminals, interacts with plasma membrane phospholipids, and is also present in nuclei and mitochondria. At least three isoforms of α-Synuclein are produced through alternative splicing. The most common isoform is a 140 amino acid-long transcript. Other isoforms include, α-Synuclein-126, lacking residues 41-54; and α-Synuclein-112, which lacks residues 103-130. α-Synuclein’s physiological role is poorly understood, but the protein has been implicated in regulating dopamine release and transport, synaptic vesicle clustering, and functioning as a SNARE-complex chaperone. α-Synuclein fibrils are a major component of the intracellular Lewy bodies that are associated with Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, and multiple system atrophy. α-Synuclein is phosphorylated at low levels under normal physiological conditions whereas the majority of the protein is phosphorylated in Lewy bodies at S129. Phosphorylation of α-Synuclein at Tyr39 may modulate clearance of the protein and contribute to Parkinson’s disease. In addition, cleavage of α-Synuclein at amino acid 122 was shown to generate a truncated, aggregation-prone fragment, similar to what has been observed in PD and DLB brains. The α-Synuclein Antibody Sampler Kit provides flexibility for sampling and detection of total, truncated and phosho-specific species of α-Synuclein in human tissue.
