Anti-GPR109B (G-protein Coupled Receptor 109B, G-protein Coupled Receptor HM74, G-protein Coupled Re

GPR109B is a membrane protein belonging to family 1 of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) is homologous to GPR109A. GPR109B, a potential 7 transmembrane-spanning receptor, shows a significant homology to B2 bradykinin receptor and to thrombin receptor. GPR109B mediates the anti-lipolytic and lipid-lowering effect of nicotinic acid by acting as a nicotinic acid receptor and results in a G protein-mediated decrease in cAMP levels and hence are promising targets for future pharmacotherapy. It is known to show highest expression in spleen followed by lymphocytes and adipose tissue. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
