The OR5K1 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO01251) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the olfactory receptor 5K1 (OR5K1) protein, which is involved in the detection of specific odor molecules. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific to OR5K1 and is validated for use in various applications such as immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry.OR5K1 is a member of the olfactory receptor family, which plays a crucial role in the sense of smell by detecting different odorants. Research on OR5K1 can provide insights into how the olfactory system functions and how specific odor molecules are detected by the body.
This antibody enables the detection and visualization of OR5K1 in different tissues and cell types, making it an essential tool for olfactory research.By studying OR5K1 and its role in odor detection, researchers can deepen their understanding of the olfactory system and potentially develop new strategies for treating disorders related to the sense of smell. The OR5K1 Polyclonal Antibody is a reliable reagent for investigating the functions and mechanisms of OR5K1 in both basic and clinical research settings.

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.
