The OR2L5 Antibody (PACO01223) is a polyclonal antibody designed for research involving the olfactory receptor OR2L5, a cell surface receptor implicated in olfactory signal transduction. This antibody, raised in rabbits, is highly reactive with human samples and is validated for use in various applications such as immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry. OR2L5 is a member of the olfactory receptor gene family, which plays a crucial role in the sense of smell by recognizing specific odor molecules. Research into OR2L5 and other olfactory receptors can provide valuable insights into how the olfactory system functions and how it contributes to sensory perception.
This antibody binds specifically to the OR2L5 protein, enabling its detection and analysis in various tissues and cell types. Its versatility makes it ideal for studies in neuroscience, sensory biology, and related fields. Understanding the role of OR2L5 and other olfactory receptors can lead to advancements in the development of therapies for olfactory disorders and potentially even neurological conditions.

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.
