Immunogen: A synthetic peptide as a part of rat vomeronasal type-1 receptor A1, A13, A14 (VN1A1, Vnr1, V1A13, V1ra13, V1A14, V1ra14) conjugated to immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen.

Format: Lyophilized

Description: Putative pheromone receptor; may play a role inolfactory sensory perception. FUNCTION: Putative pheromone receptor implicated in the regulation of social as well as reproductive behavior. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in 1-4% of neurons of thevomeronasal organ. Only one pheromone receptor gene may be expressed in a particular neuron. Not expressed in the mainolfactory epithelium.

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
