The OR5K3 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC004249) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the OR5K3 protein, a member of the olfactory receptor family known for its role in detecting odors. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific for human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications. By targeting the OR5K3 protein, this antibody enables the detection and analysis of this important receptor in various cell types, making it ideal for studies in sensory biology and olfactory research.OR5K3 is a critical player in the olfactory system, helping to transmit signals from odor molecules to the brain and ultimately contributing to our sense of smell.
Understanding the function and regulation of OR5K3 is essential for unraveling the complexities of odor perception and potentially developing new strategies for scent-based therapies or treatments for olfactory disorders. Researchers can rely on this antibody to explore the role of OR5K3 in sensory processing and uncover new insights into the mechanisms underlying our sense of smell.

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.
