The SNAP25 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can detect SNAP25 protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of SNAP25 in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on SNAP25.
Qualitative determination of SNAP25 concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, SNAP25 is captured by SNAP25-specific primary antibodies while the HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies bind the Fc region of the primary antibody. Through this binding, the HRP enzyme conjugated to the secondary antibody can catalyze a colorimetric reaction upon substrate addition. Due to the qualitative nature of the Cell-Based ELISA, multiple normalization methods are needed:
1. | A monoclonal antibody specific for human GAPDH is included to serve as an internal positive control in normalizing the target absorbance values. |
2. | Following the colorimetric measurement of HRP activity via substrate addition, the Crystal Violet whole-cell staining method may be used to determine cell density. After staining, the results can be analysed by normalizing the absorbance values to cell amounts, by which the plating difference can be adjusted. |

Sub Type: | None |
UniProt Protein Function: | Function: t-SNARE involved in the molecular regulation of neurotransmitter release. May play an important role in the synaptic function of specific neuronal systems. Associates with proteins involved in vesicle docking and membrane fusion. Regulates plasma membrane recycling through its interaction with CENPF. |
UniProt Protein Details: | Subunit structure: Part of the SNARE core complex containing SNAP25, VAMP2 and STX1A. This complex binds CPLX1. Interacts with CENPF, TRIM9, RIMS1, SNAPIN, OTOF and HGS. Binds STXBP6. Found in a ternary complex with STX1A and VAMP8. Found in a complex containing SYT1, SV2B and syntaxin-1 Subcellular location: Cytoplasm › perinuclear region By similarity. Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor. Cell junction › synapse › synaptosome. Note: Membrane association requires palmitoylation. Expressed throughout cytoplasm, concentrating at the perinuclear region Tissue specificity: Neurons of the neocortex, hippocampus, piriform cortex, anterior thalamic nuclei, pontine nuclei, and granule cells of the cerebellum. Post-translational modification: Palmitoylated. Cys-85 appears to be the main site, and palmitoylation is required for membrane association Miscellaneous: When cloned and expressed in Eschericia coli, where protein palmitoylation does not occur, Cys-85, Cys-88, Cys-90 and Cys-92 in the protein sequence readily form an iron-sulfur cluster instead. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the SNAP-25 family.Contains 2 t-SNARE coiled-coil homology domains. |
NCBI Summary: | Synaptic vesicle membrane docking and fusion is mediated by SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) located on the vesicle membrane (v-SNAREs) and the target membrane (t-SNAREs). The assembled v-SNARE/t-SNARE complex consists of a bundle of four helices, one of which is supplied by v-SNARE and the other three by t-SNARE. For t-SNAREs on the plasma membrane, the protein syntaxin supplies one helix and the protein encoded by this gene contributes the other two. Therefore, this gene product is a presynaptic plasma membrane protein involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter release. Two alternative transcript variants encoding different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq] |
