NCBI Description
The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) has been implicated in a wide range of psychiatric conditions and also has vasoconstrictive and vasodilatory effects. The gene described in this record is a member of 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor family and encodes a multi-pass membrane protein that functions as a receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine and couples to G-proteins. This protein has been shown to function in part through the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
5-HT(5A): This is one of the several different receptors for 5- hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Product Notes
The HTR5A htr5a (Catalog #
AAA6144289) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Serotonin Receptor 5A (5-Hydroxytryptamine 5A Receptor, 5-Hydroxytryptamine Receptor 5A, 5-HT5A, 5-HT-5A, 5HT5A Receptor, 5-HT5A Receptor, 5-HT5AR, HTR5A, MGC138226) (Biotin) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Serotonin Receptor 5A can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB). Sandwich ELISA: The detection limit is ~0.03ng/ml as a capture antibody Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HTR5A htr5a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"Serotonin Receptor 5A, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an
additional dry ice fee may also be
required.
