General notes
ab209538 is not suitable for WB or other denaturing conditions, as it is conformation-specific.
This antibody is useful for studying Parkinson’s disease and other synucleinopathies including dementia with Lewy bodies and multiple system atrophy.
This antibody was developed with support from The Michael J. Fox Foundation.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply

ab209538 staining Alpha-synuclein aggregate in rat dorsal root ganglian (DRG) tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (PFA perfusion fixed frozen sections). Tissue samples were fixed by perfusion with formaldehyde, cut into 20 micron slices and blocked with 2% BSA for 10 minutes at 21°C and antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in citrate buffer. The sample was incubated with primary antibody (1/2000 in TBS/BSA/azide) at 21°C for 2 hours. An Alexa Fluor® 555-conjugated Goat anti-rabbit polyclonal (1/300) was used as the secondary antibody.

Upper panel counterstain: Anti-aggregated alpha-synuclein antibody clone 5G4 at 1/400 dilution, followed by AlexaFluor®488 secondary detection (green).
Lower panel counterstain: Anti-alpha/beta-synculein antibody at 1/200 dilution, followed by Alexa Fluor® 488 secondary detection (green).
Blocking buffer: 3% bovine serum albumin and 2% fetal bovine serum.
ReNcell VM cells were differentiated in media containing cAMP and GDNF (without bFGF or EGF) and transduced with Ad5C01 viral vector encoding human WT alpha-synuclein filament.

Ab209538 staining Alpha-synuclein aggregate in Human DLB brain tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA fixed paraffin embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and blocked with 2% BSA for 10 minutes at 21°C; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in Citric acid. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/10,000 in TBS) for 2 hours at 21°C. A biotin conjugated anti-rabbit IgG Goat polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody at 1/300 dilution.

Dot blot analysis of alpha-synuclein filament labeled with ab209538 at 2.2 ng/ml.
Lane 1: Recombinant alpha-synuclein filament treated with 70% formic acid.
Lane 2: Recombinant alpha-synuclein filament treated with 70% formic acid.
Lane 3: Untreated recombinant alpha-synuclein filament.
Lane 4: Untreated recombinant alpha-synuclein filament.
Alpha Synuclein filaments were generated using full length recombinant alpha-synuclein (aa1-140) by incubation in 20mM TRIS, pH 7.2 at 37 °C with agitation.
Denaturation of filaments with 70% formic acid reduces antibody recognition by 30-100 fold, demonstrating conformation specificity.

Dot Blot showing the reactivity of ab209538 (2 ng/ml) with
F: alpha synuclein Filament
F+FA: alpha synuclein Filament treated in 50% formic acid for 1 h 37oC prior to application to the dot blot.
M+FA: alpha synuclein Monomer treated in 50% formic acid for 1 h 37oC prior to application to the dot blot.
Loading control antibody (1:1000) reacts with Alpha-synuclein irrespectively of it being in a filament, oligomer or a monomer.
