P2X7/P2RX7 Antibody (Hano43) [CoraFluor™ 1] Summary

• Description: CoraFluor(TM) 1 is a high performance terbium-based TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) or TRF (Time-Resolved Fluorescence) donor for high throughput assay development. CoraFluor(TM) 1 absorbs UV light at approximately 340 nm, and emits at approximately 490 nm, 545 nm, 585 nm and 620 nm. It is compatible with common acceptor dyes that absorb at the emission wavelengths of CoraFluor(TM) 1. CoraFluor(TM) 1 can be used for the development of robust and scalable TR-FRET binding assays such as target engagement, ternary complex, protein-protein interaction and protein quantification assays.

• Immunogen: A P2X7-expression construct and a final boost with P2X7-transfected HEK cells
• Specificity: This antibody recognises the P2X purinoceptor 7, also known as P2X7. The P2X7 ATP receptor has a distinctive long C-terminal tail with multiple potential protein and lipid interaction motifs and is highly polymorphic. It is a cation selective ion channel that opens up on binding of extracellular ATP. Sustained activation by extracellular ATP results in the formation of a reversible pore in the plasma membrane that is permeable to hydrophilic solutes of up to 900 Da. Once a pore is opened massive upset of cytoplasmic ion homeostasis occurs and the pore stays open as long as it is bound by ATP. Should ATP stimulation continue the cell will become irreversibly damaged and die. P2X7 plays a key role in the maturation and release of IL-1 and other IL-1 family members during inflammation. As such, P2X7 blockers might be useful as anti-inflammatory agents.

Background

FUNCTION: Receptor for ATP that acts as a ligand gated ion channel. Responsible for ATP-dependent lysis of macrophages through the formation of membrane pores permeable to large molecules. Could function in both fast synaptic transmission and the ATP-mediated lysis of antigen-presenting cells.; Subcellular location: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
