Ryohei Yamamoto

I am sorry I have not any information. I think Medical & Biological Lab., Japan, http://www.mbl.co.jp/e/index.html , may advise you.

Chethan Reddy

Thank you for the response. I will try to contact them.

Claudia Gaitan

Hi Chethan,

Rockland carries a few arc antibodies for western bloting. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the input Claudia. I think there are two "Arc"s. What I was looking for is an activity regulated protein,Arc, also known as Arg3.1. The one you suggest is different.

Konstantin Yakimchuk

Hello,

I recommend a free antibody database available at labome.com. With regard to antibodies to Arc (Arg3.1), you can follow this link: https://www.labome.com/review/gene/human/ARC-antibody.html. Santa Cruz Biotechnology has several anti-Arc antibodies for Western blotting: rabbit polyclonal ab sc-15325 used in western blot on mouse samples at 1:500 (ref: Herring et al., Alzheimers Dement 2016) and mouse monoclonal ab sc-17839 used in western blot on mouse samples at 1:1000 (ref: Nakayama et al., Sci Rep. 2016).

Thanks Dr. Yakimchuk. I have seen the Nakayama paper. Also I have heard antibodies from Synaptic system do a good job, need to find out.
