LRRK2 pS910 Phosphospecific Antibody (1D8)
Antibody
Mouse monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Serine910 of LRRK2.
Total Parkin Antibody*
Antibody
Monoclonal mouse antibody directed against human Parkin. Suitable for immunoblot and immunohistochemistry experiments.
Total Parkin Antibody*
Antibody
Monoclonal mouse antibody directed against human Parkin. Suitable for immunohistochemistry applications, and evidence suggests this antibody may be binding to a conformational epitope.
Rab 3 pT86 Phosphospecific Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Threonine86 of Rab3. Suitable for immunoblot applications.

Expected availability: Late 2025
LRRK2 pT1410 Phosphospecific Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Threonine1410 of LRRK2. Antibody is suitable for immunoblotting applications.
SNCA-GFP Knockin Mouse*
Mouse Model
Mouse expressing SNCA with GFP fused to the C-terminus resulting in expression of GFP-tagged alpha-synuclein under the control of endogenous regulatory elements. Model was generated and deposited by Kelvin Luk at University of Pennsylvania through the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program. RRID:IMSR_JAX:035412
Parkin Knockout Mouse*
Mouse Model
Homozygous knockout mice with exon 3 mutation resulting in a frame shift and a premature stop codon in exon 5. Model was generated and deposited by Jie Shen at Harvard Medical School Brigham and Women’s Hospital through the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program. RRID:IMSR_JAX:006582
