Anti-Dopamine D4 Receptor Antibody, extracellular domain (C15-1315-893)

Specificity

Specific for Dopamine Receptor D4. Mouse Dopamine receptor D4 is a 387 aa, G-protein coupled and transmembrane receptor protein (Van Tol et al. 1992; Legerski & Peterson 1992; Livingstone et al. 1992; Seeman et al. 1994). The immunogen peptide shows no significant homology with other dopamine receptors (D1, D2, D3 or D5).

SPECIES REACTIVITIES: The immunogen peptide shows sequence homology of 90% with rat and human D4 receptors (Van Tol et al. 1992; Legerski & Peterson 1992; Livingstone et al. 1992; Seeman et al. 1994; O′Malley et al. 1992). Antibody cross-reactivity with D4R from various species is not known.

Immunogen

A 10 amino acid peptide sequence from the mouse D4 receptor within the 3rd extracellular domain.

Epitope: extracellular domain

Application
