mGluR2 Antibody (455310) [Unconjugated]

U‑118‑MG human glioblastoma/astrocytoma cell line was stained with Mouse Anti-Human mGluR2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4676, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB0041, open histogram), followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG F(ab')2 Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permea­bilized with saponin.

Background

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) is an 872 aa, predicted 96 kDa multipass G protein coupled inhibitory receptor belonging to group II of the metabotropic glutamate receptor family. It is localized largely on the presynaptic side of glutamatergic and other neurotransmitter synapses in areas of the forebrain. mGluR2 activity is potentially involved in some anxiety disorders. The long N‑terminal extracellular region of human mGluR2 (aa 1‑498) shares 97% aa identity with either mouse or rat mGluR2.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
