Anti-EDG8

0.5 mg/ml in 1X TBS, pH7.3, with 0.5% BSA (US sourced) and 0.02% sodium azide. Additional name(s) for this target protein: Endothelial differentiation, sphingolipid G-protein-coupled receptor, 8, sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 5 (S1PR5) Protein function: Receptor for the lysosphingolipid sphingosine 1- phosphate (S1P). S1P is a bioactive lysophospholipid that elicits diverse physiological effect on most types of cells and tissues. Is coupled to both the G(i/0)alpha and G(12) subclass of heteromeric G-proteins. May play a regulatory role in the transformation of radial glial cells into astrocytes and may affect proliferative activity of these cells. [The UniProt Consortium]
