The OR52A4 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO04187) is a vital tool for researchers studying OR52A4, a key protein involved in olfactory receptor signaling. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high specificity for human samples and is validated for use in immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry applications. By targeting the OR52A4 protein, researchers can accurately detect and analyze its expression in various tissues and cell types, making it an essential tool for studies in neuroscience and sensory biology.OR52A4, a member of the olfactory receptor family, plays a crucial role in detecting specific odor molecules and transmitting signals to the brain for perception.
Understanding the function and regulation of OR52A4 is essential for unraveling the complexities of how the olfactory system processes and interprets sensory information. Research on OR52A4 may hold the key to developing new therapies for conditions related to smell and taste disorders, as well as providing insights into neurological disorders affecting the olfactory system.

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. Although originally considered to be a functional olfactory receptor, this family member is now considered to be pseudogene due to the presence of a C-terminal frameshift compared to other family members; this is also consistent with the Classifier for Olfactory Receptor Pseudogenes (CORP), as described in PMID:16939646.
