Additional Information

Swiss-Prot Q13255
Immunogen Synthetic peptide - KLH conjugated
Description The Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor mGluR1 binds L-glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, which activates both ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is involved in most aspects of normal brain function and can be perturbed in many neuropathologic conditions. mGluR1 and mGluR5 are group I receptors that have been shown to activate phospholipase C. Alternative splice variants of the mGluR1 gene have been described, but their full-length nature has not been determined. Inflammation results in the activation of mGluR1 and mGluR5 in dorsal horn neurons of the spinal cord, leading to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation, which is required for nociceptive plasticity and enhanced pain. mGluR1 has been reported in various regions of the brain and spinal cord. ESTs have been isolated from brain and eye libraries. Caution: GLUR1 refers to Ionotropic Glutamate Receptor 1, not to Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 (mGLUR1). Alternate Names: GRM1A, MGLU1, MGLUR1, MGLUR1A, GPRC1A, glutamate receptor, metabotropic 1, grm1, MGLU1 RECEPTOR, mglur1.
Specificity Reacts with Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 (family: GPCR, subfamily: Metabotropic glutamate).The immunizing peptide shows 94 % identity (100 % similarity) with mouse and 94 % identity (100 % similarity) with rat

Application Details

Application Notes Immunohistochemistry with formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues: 17 ug/ml Antigen retrieval: Steam slides in 0.01 M sodium citrate buffer, pH 6.0, at 99-100°C for 20 min. Remove from heat and let stand at room temperature in buffer for 20 min. Rinse in 1x TBS with Tween (TBST) for 1 min. at room temperature. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user. Further Comments: This product was originally produced by MBL International.
Concentration 1 mg/ml
Buffer PBS, pH 7.7, containing 0.01% sodium azide
Storage Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -70°C for longer. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Shelf life: one year from despatch.
