Background: P2X purinoceptor 7, also called P2X7, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the P2RX7 gene. The product of this gene belongs to the family of purnoceptors for ATP. P2RX7 was mapped to chromosome 12q24 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. It is a receptor for ATP that acts as a ligand-gated ion channel. This gene is responsible for ATP-dependent lysis of macrophages through the formation of membrane pores permeable to large molecules. It could function in both fast synaptic transmission and the ATP-mediated lysis of antigen-presenting cells.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
an ATP receptor; may be involved in fast synaptic transmission and the ATP-mediated lysis of antigen-presenting cells [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
P2X7: a receptor for ATP that acts as a ligand-gated ion channel. Responsible for ATP-dependent lysis by macrophages through the formation of membrane pores permeable to large molecules. Activation of this nuclear receptor by ATP in the cytoplasm may be a mechanism by which cellular activity can be coupled to changes in gene expression. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. Could function in both fast synaptic transmission and the ATP-mediated lysis of antigen-presenting cells. Phosphorylation results in its inactivation.

Product Notes
The P2RX7 p2rx7 (Catalog #AAA176306) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-P2RX7 antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's P2RX7 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the P2RX7 p2rx7 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 "P2RX7, 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.Precautions
