The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removed by chromatography using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site. NMDAR1 (phospho-Ser896) antibody detects endogenous levels of NMDAR1 only when phosphorylated at serine 896.
Purification
Immunoaffinity chromatography.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized phosphopeptide derived from human NMDAR1 around the phosphorylation site of serine 896 (R-R-SP-S-K).
Suitable for use in Western blot (1: 500approx. 1: 1000). Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

NMDA receptor subtypes of glutamate-gated ion channels possesses high calcium permeability and voltage-dependent sensitivity to magnesium. NMDAR1 plays a key role in synaptic plasticity, synaptogenesis, excitotoxicity, memory acquisition and learning. It mediates neuronal functions in glutamate neurotransmission and is involved in the cell surface targeting of NMDA receptors.Synonyms: GRIN1, Glutamate [NMDA] receptor subunit zeta-1, NMDAR1
