8B6
From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
The 8B6 Fab binds to extracellular loops 2 and 4 of hSERT, as shown by crystallography (Coleman et al, 2016).
Alternative Names
SLC6A4; Sodium-dependent serotonin transporter; 5HT transporter; Solute carrier family 6 member 4; HTT; SLC6A4
UniProt
P31645
Immunogen
8B6 was produced by immunising SERT KO mice with residues 73-616 of wildtype human SERT. Hybridomas were generated using established protocols.
Application Notes
The 8B6 Fab fragment was crystallised in complex with human SERT to aid structure determination (Coleman et al, 2016).
