| Experimental method | Experiment type: immunohistochemistry | Neuron/glia identification method: morphology | Staining frequency: not specified | 16, 3536 Experimental details:
| Antigen: NR1 c-term Antigen species: rat Source (producer): not specified Primary antibody: AbT3-1 Primary antibody species: rabbit Antibody type (monoclonal, polyclonal): not specified Secondary antibody: anti rabbit Secondary antibody species: goat Immunoglobulin class: IgG Control: not specified Visualization method: colorimetry Visualization medium: slide Annotation: The primary antibodies employed in this study have been extensively characterized in previous reports, and their specificity has been determined (Petralia and Wenthold, 1992; Wenthold et al., 1992, 1994; Brose et al., 1993; Huntley et al., 1993; Petralia et al., 1994a,b; Siegel et al., 1994). AbT3-1 is a rabbit antiserum raised against the carboxy-terminus of NR1 (Petralia et al., 1994a) and recognizes the NR1-splice variants without 3’-end deletion 2, i.e., NR1-la, -2a, -lb, -2b (Sucher et al., 1992; Hollman et al., 1993; Petralia et al., 1994a). Goat anti-rabbit and goat anti-mouse sera and rabbit and mouse PAP were purchased from Sternberger Monoclonals Inc. (Baltimore, MD). Collator note: see Table 1 page 147 for details.
