Calretinin

Rabbit anti-calretinin

ABOUT THIS ANTIBODY

anti-calretinin labels neurons expressing the calcium binding protein calretinin.

Calcium-binding preoteins contribute to calcium homeostasis by buffering intercellular calcium. This antibody labels distinct groups of neurons in the central and peripheral nervous system.

Tyrosine Hydroxylase

Tyrosine Hydroxylase

Tyrosine Hydroxylase

ABOUT THIS ANTIBODY

Tyrosine Hydroxylase is an enzyme that catalyses the convertion of L-tyrosine to L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine(L-DOPA) which is the precursor for the neurotransmitter dopamine. anti-TH labels dopaminergic neurons in the olfactory bulb, subpallium, preotic area, posterior tuberculum and locus coeruleus.
