The OR5V1 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO64419) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the olfactory receptor 5V1 (OR5V1), a protein involved in the detection of volatile odorant molecules. This antibody, generated in rabbits, is highly specific for human samples and has been validated for use in immunohistochemistry applications.OR5V1 is a key player in the olfactory system, contributing to our sense of smell by detecting specific odors and transmitting signals to the brain. Research on OR5V1 can provide insights into how our sense of smell functions and how it influences our behavior and overall well-being.
By using the OR5V1 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can accurately detect and localize OR5V1 in various tissues and cell types, facilitating studies on olfaction, neurobiology, and sensory perception. Understanding the role of OR5V1 in the olfactory system may lead to advancements in fragrance and flavor science, as well as potential therapies for smell-related disorders.

NCBI Summary:
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.
