| Note: | STRICTLY FOR FURTHER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. | 
| Short Description : | Goat polyclonal antibody anti-MC4R (N-Term) is suitable for use in ELISA research applications. | 
| Clonality : | Polyclonal | 
| Conjugation: | Unconjugated | 
| Isotype: | IgG | 
| Formulation: | 0.5 mg/ml in Tris saline, 0.02% sodium azide, pH7.3 with 0.5% bovine serum albumin. NA | 
| Purification: | Purified from goat serum by ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by antigen affinity chromatography using the immunizing peptide. | 
| Concentration: | 0.5 mg/mL | 
| Dilution Range: | Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:16000.WB: Preliminary experiments in Human Brain, Colon, Duodenum, Ileum and Placenta lysates gave no specific signal but low background (at antibody concentration up to 1µg/ml). | 
| Storage Instruction: | Store at-20°C on receipt and minimise freeze-thaw cycles. | 
| Gene Symbol: | MC4R | 
| Gene ID: | 4160 | 
| Uniprot ID: | MC4R_HUMAN | 
| Immunogen Region: | N-Term | 
| Accession Number: | NP_005903.2 | 
| Specificity: | The immunizing peptide represents extracellular part of the protein | 
| Immunogen Sequence: | NSTHRGMHTSLH | 
| Function | Receptor specific to the heptapeptide core common to adrenocorticotropic hormone and alpha-, beta-, and gamma-MSH. Plays a central role in energy homeostasis and somatic growth. This receptor is mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase (cAMP). |
