The OR2A7/OR2A4 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO01218) is a valuable tool for researchers studying olfactory receptors OR2A7 and OR2A4. These receptors are involved in detecting odor molecules in the nasal epithelium, playing a key role in the sense of smell. The antibody, generated in rabbits, demonstrates high specificity and sensitivity towards human samples, making it ideal for use in various experimental techniques such as immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry.
The OR2A7/OR2A4 Polyclonal Antibody enables researchers to investigate the expression and localization of these olfactory receptors in different tissues and cell types. By understanding the role of OR2A7 and OR2A4 in olfactory perception, researchers can gain insights into how the sense of smell functions at the molecular level. This antibody is a valuable tool for studies in sensory biology, neuroscience, and drug development targeting olfactory pathways.

Olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. The olfactory 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. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. The nomenclature assigned to the olfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.
