Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Background

Synaptopodin is the founding member of a class of proline-rich actin-associated proteins and has been originally identified in podocytes of renal glomeruli (1, 2). In brain it localizes to the post-synaptic density (PSD) and the spine aparatus (1). In humans, three isoforms of synaptopodin with a distinct expression profile have been identified, neuronal Synpo-short, renal Synpo-long and Synpo-T. All three isoforms interact with alpha-actinin and induce alpha-actinin-induced actin filaments (3).
Synaptopodin deficient mice lack the dendritic spine apparatus and exhibit impaired activity-dependent long-term synaptic plasticity (4).
