LRRK2 Antibody (133AT1218) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects LRRK2 protein of mouse, rat, and human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-LRRK2 antibody (133AT1218) is available as a non-conjugated format, providing researchers with a reliable tool for studying this critical protein. LRRK2 plays a significant role in neuronal signaling and is implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson′s disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons and the presence of Lewy bodies. These Lewy bodies are aggregates of misfolded proteins that disrupt cellular function, leading to the hallmark symptoms of the disease. LRRK2 is primarily localized in the cytoplasm and is associated with various cellular membrane structures, which is crucial for its function in signaling pathways that regulate neuronal health and survival. LRRK2′s structure includes multiple functional domains, such as a GTPase domain and a kinase domain, which are essential for enzymatic activity and interactions with other proteins. Notably, LRRK2 has been shown to interact with several key proteins involved in synaptic function and neuroinflammation, highlighting its importance in maintaining neuronal integrity and potential as a therapeutic target in Parkinson′s disease.
