Anti-VAChT Recombinant Chicken Chimeric mAb (N425/45)
Our Anti-VAChT chicken recombinant primary antibody from Aves Labs is produced in-house from hybridoma clone N425/45. It detects mouse and rat VAChT, and is purified by affinity chromatography. It is great for use in WB, IHC, ICC, ELISA.


Representative section of formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded rat brain stem showing facial motor neurons stained by VAChT (Slc18a3) recombinant chicken monoclonal antibody (Cat. 78-180) using goat anti-chicken IgY CF®488 secondary antibody (Cat. 80-1001-488) (green). The stained sections were mounted with Antibodies Incorporated Fluoroshield with DAPI and DABCO mounting medium (Cat. AR-6505). DAPI nuclear stain (blue) shows cell nuclei.

Product Details
VAChT
Vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VaCht), or Solute Carrier Family 18 Member A3 is encoded by the gene Slc18a3 and is a member of the vesicular amine transporter family. VaCht transports acetylcholine into secretory vesicles for release into the extracellular space. VaCht is expressed in major cholinergic cell groups in the peripheral and central cholinergic nervous systems. Diseases associated with SLC18A3 include Myasthenic Syndrome and Presynaptic and Presynaptic Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes.

Liquid
This recombinant antibody is a chimeric antibody created by replacing the mouse heavy and light constant regions of clone N425/45 with chicken IgY heavy and light constant regions. As such this antibody retains the same binding performance as the original clone N425/45 but can be detected using standard anti-chicken secondary antibodies allowing flexibility for multiplexing applications. This antibody is expressed recombinantly in mammalian cells and then affinity purified from the cell culture media.
