The OR4C15 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO01231) is a powerful tool for researchers studying OR4C15, a member of the olfactory receptor family involved in detecting odors. This antibody, generated in rabbits, exhibits high specificity for human samples and has been extensively validated for use in Western blot assays. By binding to the OR4C15 protein, this antibody allows for precise detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it an invaluable asset for studies in sensory biology and olfactory research.OR4C15, also known as a chemosensory receptor, plays a crucial role in the detection of specific chemical signals, contributing to the sense of smell in humans.
Understanding the function of OR4C15 can provide insights into the mechanisms underlying odor perception and may have implications for research into conditions such as anosmia or disorders of the olfactory system. By studying OR4C15, researchers can enhance their understanding of sensory biology and potentially uncover new strategies for addressing olfactory-related health issues.

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.
