RILPL1 Antibody
Antibody
Mouse monoclonal antibody directed against total rodent/human RILPL1 protein. Suitable for immunoblot, immunoprecipitation, and immunocytochemistry experiments. This antibody is a chimeric mouse IgG2a version of the rabbit anti-RILPL1 antibody (MJF-R41-21, ab302492).
RILPL1 Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against total rodent/human RILPL1 protein. Suitable for immunoblot, immunoprecipitation, and immunocytochemistry experiments.
Rat Alpha-Synuclein Monomer Protein for Making Pre-Formed Fibrils
Protein
Full-length rat alpha-synuclein monomeric protein specially formulated to generate pre-formed fibrils. Please note: Validation of the rat alpha-synuclein monomers for making pre-formed fibrils identified a lack of pathology in vitro in mouse primary hippocampal neurons and in vivo in rat. Email tools@michaeljfox.org with questions or for more information.
Rab8 pS111 Phosphospecific Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Serine111 of the human Rab8 protein (PINK1-related phosphorylation event). Suitable for immunoblot and immunocytochemistry experiments.
RAB32 Edited iPSC Lines
Human iPS Cell
KOLF2.1J human iPSC line with CRISPR-engineered mutations in RAB32, including heterozygous and homozygous S71R, and homozygous knockout mutations. These lines were generated within the iPSC Neurodegeneration Initiative for Parkinson’s Disease (iNDI-PD) which is supported by Aligning Science Across Parkinson's (ASAP). Estimated Availability: Q1 2026.
Rab 8A ELISA*
Assay
ELISA kit designed for the quantitative measurement of Rab8A protein in human cell and tissue extract samples.
Rab 8A Antibody
Antibody
Mouse anti-Rab8A antibody that has undergone Fc species switching to develop mouse reagents from the original rabbit antibody (MJF-R22-79-3). The new chimeric antibody is approved for immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, immunostaining, and flow cytometry and can be detected using Fc-specific secondary antibodies to mouse IgG.
Rab 8 pT72 Phosphospecific Antibody (Non-Selective)
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Threonine72 of the human Rab 8 protein. Suitable for immunoblot and immunoprecipitation experiments. Note: Cross reacts with threonine-phosphorylated Rabs 3, 10, 35, and 43.
Rab 7A pS72 Phosphospecific Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Serine 72 of the human Rab7A protein. Suitable for immunoblot and immunohistochemical experiments.
Rab 3 pT86 Phosphospecific Antibody
Antibody
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Threonine86 of Rab3. Suitable for immunoblot applications.
