The NETO1 Antibody (PAC058348) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the NETO1 protein, a key player in synaptic transmission and plasticity. This polyclonal antibody, generated in rabbits, demonstrates high specificity and sensitivity in detecting NETO1 in human samples through Western blotting techniques.NETO1, a transmembrane protein, is known to interact with ionotropic glutamate receptors and modulate their activity, thus playing a crucial role in synaptic function and plasticity. Research on NETO1 is essential for understanding the underlying mechanisms of neurological disorders such as epilepsy, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease.
The NETO1 Antibody enables precise detection and analysis of NETO1 expression in various cell types, making it an indispensable tool for neuroscientists and researchers studying synaptic function and dysfunction. By elucidating the role of NETO1 in synaptic transmission, this antibody contributes to advancing our knowledge of neurological disorders and potential therapeutic targets.

Immunofluorescence staining of HepG2 cells with PACO58348 at 1:200, counter-stained with DAPI. The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, permeabilized using 0.2% Triton X-100 and blocked in 10% normal Goat Serum. The cells were then incubated with the antibody overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody was Alexa Fluor 488-congugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG(H+L).
Background:
Involved in the development and/or maintenance of neuronal circuitry. Accessory subunit of the neuronal N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) critical for maintaining the abundance of GRIN2A-containing NMDARs in the postsynaptic density. Regulates long-term NMDA receptor-dependent synaptic plasticity and cognition, at least in the context of spatial learning and memory (By similarity).
Synonyms:
Neuropilin and tolloid-like protein 1 (Brain-specific transmembrane protein containing 2 CUB and 1 LDL-receptor class A domains protein 1), NETO1, BTCL1
UniProt Protein Function:
NETO1: a transmembrane protein and component of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) complex. Required to maintain the normal level of NMDAR subunits at synapses. The NMDAR complex is a major excitatory ligand-gated ion channel in the central nervous system and a major mediator of synaptic plasticity. Important in the development and/or maintenance of neuronal circuitry. Neto1-deficient mice have a dramatic decrease in the number of NMDA receptors at synapses, impairing learning and synaptic plasticity. Three isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Isoforms 1 and 2 are retina-specific whereas isoform 3 is found in retina as well as at lower levels in adult and fetal brain.Protein type: Membrane protein, integralChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 18q22.2Cellular Component: postsynaptic membrane; kainate selective glutamate receptor complex; postsynaptic density; extracellular region; excitatory synapse; cell junctionMolecular Function: ionotropic glutamate receptor bindingBiological Process: regulation of long-term neuronal synaptic plasticity; visual learning; memory

NCBI Summary:
This gene encodes a predicted transmembrane protein containing two extracellular CUB domains followed by a low-density lipoprotein class A (LDLa) domain. A similar gene in mice encodes a protein that plays a critical role in spatial learning and memory by regulating the function of synaptic N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor complexes in the hippocampus. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
