NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a transmembrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum. The encoded protein is a receptor that binds several endogenous ligands, including N,N-dimethyltryptamine, progesterone and pregnenolone and a variety of of non-opiate compounds. The encoded protein plays a role in regulating the activity of ion channels, acting as a chaperone and protecting cells from oxidative stress. In humans, this receptor has been associated with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, stroke and numerous disease conditions such as depression, pain and addiction. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013]
Uniprot Description
SIGMAR1: Functions in lipid transport from the endoplasmic reticulum and is involved in a wide array of cellular functions probably through regulation of the biogenesis of lipid microdomains at the plasma membrane. Involved in the regulation of different receptors it plays a role in BDNF signaling and EGF signaling. Also regulates ion channels like the potassium channel and could modulate neurotransmitter release. Plays a role in calcium signaling through modulation together with ANK2 of the ITP3R-dependent calcium efflux at the endoplasmic reticulum. Plays a role in several other cell functions including proliferation, survival and death. Originally identified for its ability to bind various psychoactive drugs it is involved in learning processes, memory and mood alteration. Defects in SIGMAR1 are the cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 16, juvenile (ALS16). ALS16 is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper motor neurons in the brain and lower motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. The pathologic hallmarks of the disease include pallor of the corticospinal tract due to loss of motor neurons, presence of ubiquitin-positive inclusions within surviving motor neurons, and deposition of pathologic aggregates. The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The disease is inherited in 5- 10% of the cases. Belongs to the ERG2 family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Monkey SIGMAR1 sigmar1 (Catalog #AAA746051) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA746051 ELISA Kit recognizes Monkey SIGMAR1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Sigma non-opioid intracellular receptor 1, ELISA Kit" 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
