General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-01035) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human OR9Q2. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. OR9Q2 (Olfactory Receptor Family 9 Subfamily Q Member 2) is a protein-coding gene that belongs to the olfactory receptor (OR) superfamily of G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs). OR9Q2 is primarily expressed in the olfactory epithelium, where it is thought to participate in odorant detection by binding specific volatile molecules and initiating olfactory signal transduction through coupling with G proteins such as Golf, leading to downstream cyclic AMP (cAMP) signaling pathways. Structurally, OR9Q2 contains the characteristic seven-transmembrane domains typical of GPCRs, enabling interaction with diverse odorant ligands. Although its precise ligand specificity and functional role remain incompletely characterized, OR9Q2 contributes to the diversity and sensitivity of the human olfactory receptor repertoire involved in the perception of smell.
DPABH-01035 is suitable for use in WB 1 (500-1:1000), IF/ICC 1 (100-1:500) applications.
DPABH-01035 is supplied as a liquid formulation in Phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. 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.
