Description

Description: MaxLight™490 is a new Blue-Green photostable dye conjugate comparable to DyLight™488, Alexa Fluor™488 and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (491nm); Emission (515nm); Extinction Coefficient 73,000. The ion channels activated by glutamate are divided into two classes. Those that are sensitive to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) are designated NMDA receptors (NMDAR) while those activated by kainate and a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl- 4-isoxalone propionic acid (AMPA) are known as kainate/AMPA receptors (K/AMPAR). NMDA receptors are among the most studied receptors in neuroscience. They are involved in neuronal cell development and plasticity, a cellular correlate for learning. NMDA receptors are implicated in several disorders of the central nervous system including epilepsy and ischemic neuronal cell death. NMDA receptors appear to be a target for ethanol at physiological concentrations which may play a significant role in alcoholism.
