  • ${value}
  • Eif4g1 KO

    Mice carrying a targeted Eif4g1 mutation in which exons 24 through 28 are deleted. RRID:IMSR_JAX:024521

  • Lentiviral eGFP-LRRK2 (wild-type)

    Lentiviral vector encoding wild-type LRRK2 and eGFP. Lentiviral eGFP available as a control in Reporter section. 

    Please note: This viral vector is not intended for in vivo use. 

  • Alpha-Synuclein Antibody

    Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against wild-type human alpha-synuclein. The antibody was mapped to amino acids 118-123 (VDPDNE).

  • Wild Type Human Alpha-Synuclein Mouse

    Mice express a wild-type human alpha-synuclein gene directed by its endogenous promoter/enhancer regions on the BAC transgene. RRID:IMSR_JAX:018442

  • LRRK2 Antibody (MJFF2)

    Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against wild-type LRRK2. The antibody was mapped to the LRR domain of LRRK2 (AA 1035-1239).

  • LRRK2 Wild-type Mouse

    Mice express a wild-type human LRRK2 gene directed by its endogenous promoter/enhancer regions on the BAC transgene. The human LRRK2 protein expression is approximately 5-fold over endogenous mouse LRRK2. RRID:IMSR_JAX:013725

  • Miro1 Antibody (WB)

    Rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against human/mouse/rat Miro1, validated for use as a detector antibody in immunoblotting applications. 

  • DOX-Inducible iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neuron

    Inducible iPSC line in which addition of doxicycline to the media stimulates differentiation into dopamine neurons with 90% purity in a matter of days.

    Estimated Availability: Mid 2026
