This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-Nptx1 Antibody. It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications.
Nptx1 may mediate uptake of degraded synaptic material which could play an important role in synaptic remodeling. It can mediate the neuronal and glial uptake of the snake venom toxin taipoxin.
