The OR4L1 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC002456) is a powerful tool for researchers studying OR4L1, 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 validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the OR4L1 protein, this antibody enables accurate detection and analysis in various cell types, making it an excellent choice for studies in sensory biology and olfaction research.
OR4L1, also known as olfactory receptor 4-like 1, plays a crucial role in the detection and discrimination of different odorants, contributing to our sense of smell. Research on OR4L1 can provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying olfaction and how the brain processes sensory information. By understanding the function of OR4L1, researchers can potentially unlock new strategies for enhancing our understanding of smell perception and developing therapies for olfactory disorders.

NCBI Summary:
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.
