Shank 3 Antibody (C-4) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects Shank 3 in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-Shank 3 antibody (C-4) is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. Shank 3 plays a crucial role in the postsynaptic density (PSD), a specialized structure essential for synaptic signaling and plasticity. Located beneath the postsynaptic membrane of excitatory synapses, PSD anchors and clusters glutamate receptors vital for neurotransmission. Structural integrity and organization of PSD are critical for proper synaptic function, facilitating efficient signal transmission between neurons. Shank proteins, including Shank 3, contain PDZ domains mediating protein-protein interactions, coordinating localization of various ion channels, receptors, and signaling molecules within PSD. This interaction network maintains synaptic strength and plasticity, fundamental processes underlying learning and memory. Using Shank 3 (C-4) monoclonal antibody enables researchers to gain insights into molecular mechanisms governing synaptic architecture and function, contributing to understanding neurodevelopmental disorders and synaptic dysfunction.
