NSF Antibody / Vesicle-Fusing ATPase Antibody is designed for the study of a highly conserved ATPase that is essential for intracellular membrane trafficking and vesicle fusion. N-Ethylmaleimide Sensitive Factor (NSF) is a member of the ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities (AAA ATPase) family and functions as a molecular chaperone that catalyzes the ATP-dependent disassembly of SNARE protein complexes after membrane fusion. This recycling step is critical for maintaining continuous vesicle transport between intracellular compartments and for supporting repeated rounds of membrane fusion throughout the cell.
NSF acts together with soluble NSF attachment proteins (SNAPs) to recognize cis-SNARE complexes formed after vesicle fusion. Hydrolysis of ATP provides the energy required to dissociate these complexes, allowing SNARE proteins to participate in subsequent rounds of vesicle docking and fusion. Through this mechanism, NSF regulates constitutive and regulated exocytosis, endocytosis, neurotransmitter release, Golgi trafficking, endosomal transport, lysosomal function, and membrane recycling. Because SNARE-mediated membrane fusion is fundamental to nearly every eukaryotic cell, NSF is indispensable for normal cellular organization and communication.
Altered NSF activity has been associated with neurological disorders, impaired synaptic transmission, neurodegeneration, and defects in vesicular transport. NSF also participates in membrane trafficking events that influence receptor recycling, autophagy, cytokine secretion, and intracellular pathogen biology. Its central position within membrane trafficking pathways has made NSF an important model protein for studies of vesicle dynamics, organelle biogenesis, protein secretion, and neuronal function. Continued investigation of NSF is expanding understanding of how ATP-driven remodeling of SNARE complexes regulates membrane organization and cellular homeostasis.
An NSF Antibody is a valuable reagent for detecting endogenous NSF by western blotting, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, flow cytometry, and related laboratory applications. A Vesicle-Fusing ATPase Antibody supports investigations of membrane trafficking, vesicle fusion, SNARE complex recycling, intracellular transport, and neurobiology.
Researchers investigating synaptic vesicle cycling, membrane trafficking, neurotransmitter release, and intracellular transport may also be interested in exploring our Neuroscience Marker Antibodies page for additional validated research antibodies.
Optimal dilution of the NSF Antibody / Vesicle-Fusing ATPase Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A recombinant human partial protein corresponding to amino acids N620-D744 was used as the immunogen for the NSF antibody.
After reconstitution, the NSF antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
