Specifications
Host Species:
Rabbit
Species Reactivity:
Bovine, Chicken, Dog, Frog, Human, Mouse, Rat, Zebrafish
Immunogen:
Peptide corresponding to amino acid residues from the N-terminal region of rat DARPP-32, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH).
Conjugate:
Unconjugated
Tested Applications:
IHC, WB
Application Note:
The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in Western blots with rat tissue. It is anticipated that the antibody will also react with bovine, canine, chicken, human, mouse, rat, Xenopus and zebra fish based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen.

Background:
DARPP-32 is a dopamine (DA) and cAMP-regulated ~32k phosphoprotein that is associated with dopaminoceptive neurons (Fienberg et al., 1998). The protein inhibits Protein Phosphatase I when it is phosphorylated on Thr34. In contrast, when DARPP-32 is phosphorylated on Thr75 the protein acts as an inhibitor of PKA (Bibb et al., 1999). Phosphorylation of DARPP-32 is thought to play a critical role in the regulation of dopaminergic neurotransmission. In addition, the activity of DARPP-32 is also thought to play important rolesin the actions of alcohol, caffeine and Prozac® (Maldve et al., 2002; Lindskog et al., 2002; Svenningsson et al., 2002).
