Related Product Information for anti-NK2 antibody
The tachykinins belong to an evolutionary conserved family of peptide neurotransmitters that share the c-terminal sequence Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2 and have an established role in neurotransmission. The mammalian tachykinins include substance P, neurokinin A (NKA) and neurokinin B (NKB) which exert their effects by binding to specific receptors. Tachykinin peptides are important in the mediation of many physiological and pathological processes including inflammation, pain, migraine headache and allergy induced asthma.Three tachykinin receptor types have been characterized, NK-1, NK-2 and NK-3 which have preferential affinities for SP, NKA and NKB respectively. All three receptors share a high degree of sequence homology, have seven transmembrane spanning domains and similar signal transduction mechanisms (e.g. G-protein coupled activation of phospholipase C).

NCBI Description

This gene belongs to a family of genes that function as receptors for tachykinins. Receptor affinities are specified by variations in the 5'-end of the sequence. The receptors belonging to this family are characterized by interactions with G proteins and 7 hydrophobic transmembrane regions. This gene encodes the receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K, also referred to as neurokinin A. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

TACR2: This is a receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K (neurokinin A). It is associated with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The rank order of affinity of this receptor to tachykinins is: substance K > neuromedin-K > substance P. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Protein type: GPCR, family 1; Receptor, GPCR; Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 10q22.1

Cellular Component: integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane

Molecular Function: substance K receptor activity; protein binding; tachykinin receptor activity

Biological Process: negative regulation of luteinizing hormone secretion; tachykinin signaling pathway; muscle contraction; intestine smooth muscle contraction; operant conditioning; response to electrical stimulus; excretion; positive regulation of vascular permeability; positive regulation of acetylcholine secretion

Product Notes

The NK2 tacr2 (Catalog #AAA556417) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Neurokinin-2 (NK 2) Receptor reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Neurokinin-2 (NK 2) Receptor can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the NK2 tacr2 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 "Neurokinin-2 (NK 2) 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.
