NCBI Description

This gene encodes a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which belongs to a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that play a role in fast signal transmission at synapses. These pentameric receptors can bind acetylcholine, which causes an extensive change in conformation that leads to the opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. This protein is an integral membrane receptor subunit that can interact with either nAChR beta-2 or nAChR beta-4 to form a functional receptor. Mutations in this gene cause nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy type 1. Polymorphisms in this gene that provide protection against nicotine addiction have been described. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Uniprot Description

nAChRA4: a ligand-gated ion channels that binds acetylcholine and mediates fast signal transmission at synapses. After binding acetylcholine, these pentameric receptors undergo an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. An integral membrane receptor subunit that can interact with either nAChR beta-2 or nAChR beta-4 to form a functional receptor.

Product Notes

The CHRNa4 chrna4 (Catalog #AAA2032116) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Cholinergic Receptor, Nicotinic, Alpha 4 (CHRNa4) Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Cholinergic Receptor can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Formalin/Paraffin, ELISA (EIA). Western Blot: 1:50-400 Immunohistochemistry in formalin fixed frozen section: 1:50-500 Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay: 1:100-200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CHRNa4 chrna4 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 "Cholinergic Receptor, Polyclonal 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.
