Anti-Serotonin Receptor 7 (5-Hydroxytryptamine (Serotonin) Receptor 7, 5-Hydroxytryptamine Serotonin

Receptors for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) are classified into seven major classes (5-HTR1-7), based on structural, functional and pharmacological criteria (Hoyer et al, 1994). The 5-HT7 receptor (5-HT7R) is a seven-transmembrane-domain G-protein-coupled receptor that has important roles in regulating diverse biological process in the central and peripheral nervous systems (reviewed in Hedlund and Sutcliffe, 2004). Receptors for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) are classified into seven major classes (5-HT1-7), based on structural, functional and pharmacological criteria (Hoyer et al, 1994). Sequence alignment shows a high degree of interspecies 5-HT7R homology (>90%), and a low homology with other 5-HTRs. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
