The OR8D1 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO01261) is a useful tool for research involving the OR8D1 protein, a member of the olfactory receptor family involved in detecting odors. This antibody, produced in rabbits, has been validated for use in various applications such as Western blot and immunohistochemistry. It specifically binds to OR8D1, allowing for efficient detection and analysis in different tissues and cell types.OR8D1 is known to play a key role in the olfactory system, helping to recognize and distinguish different odors. Research on OR8D1 can provide insights into the mechanisms of odor detection and processing in the body, as well as potential links to conditions such as anosmia or altered sense of smell.
Understanding the function of OR8D1 can also have implications for the development of therapies related to olfactory disorders or sensory perception. Overall, the OR8D1 Polyclonal Antibody is a valuable tool for researchers investigating the role of OR8D1 in olfaction and sensory processes, offering reliable and specific detection for experimental studies.

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.
