The OR51A7 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO02440) is a valuable tool for researchers studying OR51A7, a member of the olfactory receptor family involved in odorant detection. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific to human OR51A7 and has been validated for use in various applications, including Western blotting.OR51A7 is a G protein-coupled receptor expressed in certain tissues, such as the olfactory epithelium, where it plays a key role in detecting specific odorants.
Research on OR51A7 is important for understanding the mechanisms of smell perception and how odorants are detected and processed by the olfactory system.By using the OR51A7 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can detect and study the expression of OR51A7 in different cell types and tissues, aiding in the investigation of odorant detection and olfactory signaling pathways. This antibody is a valuable tool for studies in sensory biology, neurobiology, and olfaction research.

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.
