Peptide with sequence C-KAKKNLEVKKNN, from the internal region of the protein sequence Genename: Npy2r .Remarks: This antibody was designed using the Mouse sequence, which differs by 1 amino acid from the Human sequence.
Peptide ELISA: Detection Limit: 1/32000. Western Blot: 0.1-0.3 μg/mL. Approx 40+45 kDa bands observed in Mouse Brain and RatBrain lysates (calculated MW of 42.5 kDa according to NP032757.1). A customer successfully used this product for immunoprecipitation of Human Y2R. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors are members of a G protein coupled receptor superfamily and they mediate a variety of physiological responses including feeding and vasoconstriction. The endogenous ligands of NPY receptors are a family of structurally related peptides, including NPY, peptide YY (PYY), and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). Increased activity of NPY and its receptors, Y1R, Y2R, and Y5R has been found in the brain in many forms of experimental obesity. Furthermore, several association studies have supported the association between NPY2R and obesity.Synonyms: NPY-Y2 receptor, NPY2-R, Neuropeptide Y receptor 2, Y2 receptor
