Anti-tetX

tetX Antibody is a IgG polyclonal antibody from Assay Genie with reactivity against Clostridium tetani and for use in ELISA applications. tetX Antibody is a high quality polyclonal antibody for research use only.. Protein function: Tetanus toxin acts by inhibiting neurotransmitter release. It binds to peripheral neuronal synapses, is internalized and moves by retrograde transport up the axon into the spinal cord where it can move between postsynaptic and presynaptic neurons. It inhibits neurotransmitter release by acting as a zinc endopeptidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the '76-Gln-, -Phe-77' bond of synaptobrevin-2. [The UniProt Consortium]
