Background Information
PSD-95 (postsynaptic density protein 95) also known as SAP-90 (synapse-associated protein 90) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DLG4 (disks large homolog 4) gene. PSD-95 is a scaffolding protein of the MAGUK protein family, and engages in several vital protein-protein interactions in the brain with its PDZ domains. It has been suggested that PSD-95 is composed of two supramodules, one of which is the PDZ1-2 tandem domain. It plays an important role in synaptic plasticity and the stabilization of synaptic changes during long-term potentiation. Observed MW of PSD95 is 90-95 kDa due to phosphorylation (PMID: 20682303).

Reviews
What customers say
Both reviewers gave 5-star ratings. One used the antibody for Western Blot on mouse tissues and cell lines at 1:1000 dilution, noting the signal was already saturated at just 2.5 seconds of exposure, suggesting it could be diluted further. They found it superior to another PSD95 antibody for mouse samples, with no non-specificity in non-brain tissues. The principal band ranged from 80 to 110 kDa. The other reviewer used it for IHC and IF, praising its high specificity and sensitivity, providing reliable and reproducible results.

Olga (Verified Customer) (10-03-2025) | You can surely dilute it more than 1:1000, as the signal was already saturated at 2.5 seconds of exposition. I find it better for mouse samples as it does not give non-specificity in non-brain tissues (comparing to 20665-1-AP PSD95 antibody) - all the mouse cells tested are of neuronal origin. The principal band size depends on protein marker used (see picture) - and can vary from 80 to 110 kDa.
