The OR8J1 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO2693) is an essential tool for researchers studying the OR8J1 protein, a member of the olfactory receptor family involved in detecting odors. This antibody is produced in rabbits and exhibits high specificity and sensitivity towards human samples, making it suitable for a variety of research applications, particularly in Western blot analysis.OR8J1, also known as olfactory receptor 8J1, is crucial for the sense of smell and plays a significant role in olfactory signal transduction.
By targeting OR8J1, researchers can investigate the mechanisms underlying odor perception and gain insights into how the olfactory system functions in health and disease. With its exceptional reactivity and specificity, the OR8J1 Polyclonal Antibody offers a valuable tool for studies in sensory biology and neuroscience.

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.
