Monoclonal Anti-D1 Dopamine Receptor antibody produced in rat

General description

Monoclonal Anti-D1 Dopamine Receptor (rat IgG2a isotype) is derived from the rat hybridoma 1-1-F11 S.E6 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from rat immunized with recombinant fusion protein containing the C-terminal 97 amino acid of human D1 dopamine receptor. Dopamine receptors belong to the family of seven transmembrane domain G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Dopamine receptors are mainly localized in the striatum, limbic system, the brain cortex and the infundibulum. The D1-like family consists of the D1 and D5 receptors.

Biochem/physiol Actions

D1 receptors regulate neuronal growth and development, mediate some behavioral responses, and modulate dopamine receptor D2-mediated events. D1 receptors are expressed on airway smooth muscle (ASM) and regulate smooth muscle force via cAMP activation of protein kinase A. It is a potential target for therapeutic relaxation of ASM.

Target description

D1 Dopamine Receptor encodes the D1 subtype of the dopamine receptor. The D1 subtype is the most abundant dopamine receptor in the central nervous system. This G-protein coupled receptor stimulates adenylyl cyclase and activates cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases.
