General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-24163) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human OR2A4, targeting the amino acid region 31–307 of the protein. This antibody exhibits cross-reactivity with OR2A4 from mouse and rat. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. OR2A4 is a protein-coding gene in humans that encodes olfactory receptor 2A4, a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) belonging to the largest multigene family in the genome, which is primarily expressed in the olfactory epithelium of the nasal cavity. This receptor interacts with specific odorant molecules to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of smell, sharing a conserved seven-transmembrane domain structure typical of GPCRs involved in signal transduction. Located on chromosome 6q23.2 (GRCh38.p14: NC_000006.12, 131699644.131701401, complement), the gene consists of a single exon and has synonyms including OR2A10, OR2A7, and olfactory receptor OR6-37.
DPABH-24163 is suitable for use in ELISA (1:20,000–1:80,000), IHC (1:100–1:500) applications.
DPABH-24163 is supplied as a liquid formulation in PBS, pH 7.4 with 0.02% Sodium Azide. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
