Anti-Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 Antibody Picoband®, Biotine Conjugate

Anti-Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 Antibody Picoband®, Biotine Conjugate

• Background: Prostaglandin E2 receptor (53kDa), also known as EP2, is aprostaglandin receptor for prostaglandin E2. It is encoded by the human gene PTGER2. It may be associated with aspirin-induced asthma. PTGER2 is mapped to chromosome 14q22. This gene encodes a receptor for prostaglandin E2, a metabolite of arachidonic acid which has different biologic activities in a wide range of tissues. Mutations in this gene are associated with aspirin-induced susceptibility to asthma.

• UniProt: P43116
• Host: Rabbit
• Reactivity: Human
• Cross Reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
• Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human PTGER2, different from the related mouse sequence by four amino acids, and from the related rat sequence by three amino acids.
• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Applications: WB
• Purification: Immunogen affinity purified.
• Concentration: Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.
• Form: Lyophilized
• Reconstitution: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
• Function: Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G (s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. The subsequent raise in intracellular cAMP is responsible for the relaxing effect of this receptor on smooth muscle.
