FITC Alpha-Synuclein

Product background: Alpha-Synuclein (α-Synuclein) is a presynaptic protein found to be a major component of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) aggregates and is implicated in the pathogenesis of PD and related neurodegenerative disorders.

About the product: Expressed recombinantly in E. coli, human Alpha-Synuclein is covalently labeled with FITC at the side chain of lysine residues and purified to our highest standards to ensure batch-to-batch consistency in both purity and quality.

Applications: The Alpha-Synuclein FITC is sold in 20mM Tris, 100mM NaCl, pH 7.4 to ensure a highly monomeric starting material that may be suited to aggregation studies, binding kinetics, immunofluorescence and more.
