Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human AGTR1, different from the related mouse and rat sequences by one amino acid.
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 50 kDa; calculated MW: 41061 MW
- Reactivity: Human,Monkey,Mouse,Rat
- Applications: IHC, WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
Type-1 angiotensin II receptor; Type-1 angiotensin II receptor. AGTR1 is known as Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor. Angiotensin II is a potent vasopressor hormone and a primary regulator of aldosterone secretion. It is an important effector controlling blood pressure and volume in the cardiovascular system. And it acts through at least two types of receptors. This gene encodes the type 1 receptor which is thought to mediate the major cardiovascular effects of angiotensin II. Moreover, this gene may play a role in the generation of reperfusion arrhythmias following restoration of blood flow to ischemic or infarcted myocardium. It was previously thought that a related gene, denoted as AGTR1B, existed; however, it is now believed that there is only one type 1 receptor gene in humans. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been reported for this gene. Functional note: Receptor for angiotensin II. Mediates its action by association with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system. Reported localization: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Expression/tissue context: Liver, lung, adrenal and adrenocortical adenomas.
