Alpha-Synuclein O-GlcNAc T72 Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody specific to human and mouse alpha-synuclein when modified with O-GlcNAc at Threonine 72 (O-GlcNAc T72 aSyn). Developed for use in immunoblotting, immunofluorescence, and ELISA applications. This antibody development project is part of the MJFF Targets to Therapies (T2T) Initiative. Anticipated Availability: Q4 2027
AAK1 pS623 Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Serine 623 of AAK1. This antibody failed validation and will not be made available.
ITPKB Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against human ITPKB. Developed for use in immunoblotting, immunocytochemistry, and immunoprecipitation applications. This antibody development project is part of the Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s (ASAP) Initiative. Anticipated Availability: Q4 2027
LRRK2 Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against human/mouse LRRK2. Developed for use in immunocytochemistry applications. Anticipated Availability: Q4 2027
CLN3 Antibody
