Related Product Information for anti-MTNR1A antibody
MTNR1A is a Melatonin Receptor located in the hypothalamus. It mediates melatonin control of circadian rhythms and reproductive functions affected by changes in day length. It is particularly important for seasonally breeding mammals. Ovine melatonin-related receptors are found in the hypothalamus and also in the pituitary, retina, and retinal pigment epithelium (Drew et al, 1998).

NCBI Description

This gene encodes one of two high affinity forms of a receptor for melatonin, the primary hormone secreted by the pineal gland. This receptor is a G-protein coupled, 7-transmembrane receptor that is responsible for melatonin effects on mammalian circadian rhythm and reproductive alterations affected by day length. The receptor is an integral membrane protein that is readily detectable and localized to two specific regions of the brain. The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus appears to be involved in circadian rhythm while the hypophysial pars tuberalis may be responsible for the reproductive effects of melatonin.

Uniprot Description

MTNR1A: High affinity receptor for melatonin. Likely to mediates the reproductive and circadian actions of melatonin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q35.1

Cellular Component: integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane; receptor complex

Molecular Function: protein binding; hormone binding; melatonin receptor activity

Biological Process: circadian rhythm; G-protein signaling, coupled to cyclic nucleotide second messenger; positive regulation of cGMP biosynthetic process; mating behavior

Product Notes

The MTNR1A mtnr1a (Catalog #AAA248157) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit Polyclonal to Human MTNR1A / Melatonin Receptor 1a reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's MTNR1A / Melatonin Receptor 1a can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC - Paraffin). IHC-P (5 - 10 ug/ml). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MTNR1A mtnr1a 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 "MTNR1A / Melatonin Receptor 1a, 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.
