Immunogen: A synthetic peptide from mouse olfactory receptor family 174, subfamily 9 (MOR174-9, ORL828, Olfr73, mOR-EG) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen.

Format: Lyophilized

Description: Known ligands VANILLIN ETHYL VANILLIN EUGENOL ETHYL ETHER 2-METHOXY-4-METHYLPHENOL EUGENYL ACETATE 2-METHOXY-4-ETHYLPHENOL FUNCTION: Putative odorant receptor. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; multi-pass membrane protein. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor family.olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. Theolfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) arising from single coding-exon genes.olfactory receptors share a 7-transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein-mediated transduction of odorant signals. Theolfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. The nomenclature assigned to theolfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.<||a href="http://www.enzim.hu/hmmtop1.1/server/submit.html" > <||/a> Also known as: Odorant receptor,olfactory receptor Olfr73,olfactory receptor MOR174-9, ORL828. GENE NAME: Olfr73, mOR-EG..

Specificity: Appears to be specific for MOR174-9.

Application Details

Application Notes: IHC, WB. A dilution of 1 : 300 to 1 : 2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not yet tested in other applications.

Purity: whole serum

Storage: Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.

Restrictions: For Research Use only
