Full Length pS129 Alpha-Synuclein Protein
Phospho-S129 Alpha Synuclein semi-synthetic phosphomimetic protein generated by native chemical ligation of a recombinant peptide produced from E. coli and a synthtic peptide
-
Total Rab 8 Antibody (Hu/Ms/Rt)
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against the human and rodent total Rab 8 protein. Suitable for immunoblot and immunoprecipitation experiments. This antibody epitope was mapped to C-terminus amino acids 190-196.
