Anti-GluA2/GluR2 Glutamate Receptor Recombinant Chicken Chimeric mAb (L21/32)
Our chicken Anti-GluA2/GluR2 glutamate receptor recombinant monoclonal antibody is a chimeric antibody derived from NeuroMab clone L21/32. It detects human, mouse, and rat GluA2/GluR2 glutamate receptor and is purified by affinity chromatography. KO validated. Works in WB, IHC, ICC, IP, ELISA, EM.
Representative section of formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded rat brain hippocampal region showing cells stained by anti-GluA2/GluR2 Glutamate Receptor recombinant chicken mAb (green, Cat No. 78-002) using goat anti-chicken IgY CF®488 secondary antibody (Cat No. 80-1001-488).
Glutelin type-A 2 (GluA2) , also called GRIA2, GLUR2, GLURB, GluA2, GluR-K2, HBGR2 or glutamate ionotropic receptor AMPA type subunit 2, is a member of the Glutamate receptor family of the mammalian brain. This neurotransmiter receptor subunit, which is activated during normal central nervous system fuction, is encoded by the GRIA2 (or GLUR2) gene. GluA2 constitutes a key subunit that regulates AMPA receptors. AMPA receptors lacking of Glua2 have been shown to be present in diseased brains, whose basic fuctions have been altered.

This recombinant antibody is a chimeric antibody created by replacing the mouse heavy and light constant regions of clone L21/32 with chicken IgY heavy and light constant regions. As such this antibody retains the same binding performance as the original clone L21/32 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.
Does not cross-react with GluA1/GluR1, GluA3/GluR3 or GluA4/GluR4 (based on KO validation results)
Each new lot of antibody is quality control tested by Western blot on rat brain membrane fraction and confirmed to stain the expected molecular weight band.
These antibodies are to be used as research laboratory reagents and are not for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.

UniProt Summary: Ionotropic glutamate receptor that functions as a ligand-gated cation channel, gated by L-glutamate and glutamatergic agonists such as alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), quisqualic acid, and kainic acid. L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system and plays an important role in fast excitatory synaptic transmission. Binding of the excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamate induces a conformation change, leading to the opening of the cation channel, and thereby converts the chemical signal to an electrical impulse upon entry of monovalent and divalent cations such as sodium and calcium. The receptor then desensitizes rapidly and enters in a transient inactive state, characterized by the presence of bound agonist. In the presence of CACNG4 or CACNG7 or CACNG8, shows resensitization which is characterized by a delayed accumulation of current flux upon continued application of L-glutamate. Through complex formation with NSG1, GRIP1 and STX12 controls the intracellular fate of AMPAR and the endosomal sorting of the GRIA2 subunit toward recycling and membrane targeting.
