Olfactory Receptor, Family 2, Subfamily V, Member 1 (OR2V1) antibody

Antigen: Olfactory Receptor, Family 2, Subfamily V, Member 1 (OR2V1)

Synonyms: OR2V1P, OST265

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Human

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blotting (WB)

Catalog no.: ABIN350641

Additional Information

Alternative name: olfactory receptor (OR2V1, OST265)

UniProt: Q8NHB1

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide as a part of human olfactory receptor OR2V1 (OST265) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen.

Format: Lyophilized

Description: 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.

Specificity: Appears to be specific for Olfactory receptor OR2V1.

Application Details

Application Notes: IHC, WB. A dilution of 1 : 300 to 1 : 3000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user.

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
