The MUP11 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO34838) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the MUP11 protein, a member of the major urinary protein (MUP) family involved in chemical communication in various species. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications.MUP11, also known as a pheromone-binding protein, plays a key role in chemical signaling and communication in mammals, particularly in relation to reproductive and social behaviors. Its involvement in olfactory communication makes it a target of interest in studies on pheromones, animal behavior, and reproductive biology.
With its ability to specifically bind to the MUP11 protein, this antibody enables researchers to detect and analyze MUP11 expression in different cell types and tissues, providing valuable insights into the role of this protein in chemical signaling pathways. This antibody is particularly useful for investigations in the fields of pheromone biology, behavioral ecology, and reproductive physiology.

Antibody SKU:
PACO34838
Size:
50ug
Host Species:
Rabbit
Tested Applications:
ELISA
Recommended Dilutions:
Species Reactivity:
Mouse
Immunogen:
Recombinant Mouse Major urinary proteins 11 and 8 protein (1-151AA)
Binds pheromones that are released from drying urine of males. These pheromones affect the sexual behavior of females.
Synonyms:
Major urinary protein 11, Mup11, Mup9
UniProt Protein Function:
Mup11: Major urinary proteins (Mups) bind pheromones, and thus stabilize them to allow slow release into the air from urine marks. May protect pheromones from oxidation. May also act as pheromones themselves. In this context, they play a role in the regulation of social behaviors, such as aggression, mating, pup-suckling, territory establishment and dominance (Probable). Binds the pheromone analog 2-sec-butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazole (SBT) in vitro.
