Floxed Parkin Mouse*
Mouse Model
Mice with loxP sites flanking Parkin exon 4 for conditional knockout using Cre-expressing viral vectors. Model was generated and deposited by Dr Ted Dawson at Johns Hopkins University through the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program.
pS65 Ubiquitin Immunoassay*
Assay
SMCxPRO® immunoassay for measurement of phospho-serine 65 Ubiquitin. Assay was developed and kindly shared by Mitokinin through the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program.

Miro1 Antibody (ELISA-Capture)
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against human/mouse/rat Miro1, validated for use as a capture antibody in immunoassay applications.
Can also be purchased as a pair with the detector antibody here.
Miro1 Antibody (ELISA-Detector)
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against human/mouse/rat Miro1, validated for use as a detector antibody in immunoassay applications.
Can also be purchased as a pair with the detector antibody here.
Ubiquitin pS65 Phosphospecific Antibody (IHC)
Antibody
Rat anti-pS65 Ubiquitin antibody that has undergone Fc species switching to develop rat reagents from the original rabbit antibody (41H1/41K3). The new chimeric antibody is approved for immunohistochemistry and can be detected using Fc-specific secondary antibodies to rat IgG.
Ubiquitin pS65 Phosphospecific Antibody (WB/ICC/ELISA)
Antibody
Rat anti-pS65 Ubiquitin antibody that has undergone Fc species switching to develop rat reagents from the original rabbit antibody (30H3/30K1). The new chimeric antibody is approved for immunoblotting, immunocytochemistry, and immunoassay, and can be detected using Fc-specific secondary antibodies to rat IgG.
Alpha-Synuclein N Terminal Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against the N-terminal of human/mouse alpha-synuclein. Epitope has been mapped to amino acids 12-17 and 46-50 (due to sequence homology). Suitable for use in immunoblotting, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and immunoassay.
BAG3 Protein
Protein
Human BAG3 protein. This protein was generated and shared by Drs Paul Brennan and Karolina Rygiel at Oxford University though the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program.
Acid Ceramidase (ASAH1) Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against human acid ceramidase for immunocytochemistry and immunoprecipitation applications.
FYN Protein*
Protein
Human FYN Protein. This protein was generated and shared by Drs Paul Brennan and Karolina Rygiel at Oxford University though the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program.
