Alternative NamesTransient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1; TrpV1; Capsaicin receptor; Osm-9-like TRP channel 1; OTRPC1; Vanilloid receptor 1; TRPV1; VR1; VR-1;
Application(s)IHC-Frozen
Antibody HostRabbit
Antibody TypePolyclonal
SpecificityImmunohistochemical analysis of rat DRG indicates a superb degree of specificity for this serum. This antibody is known to react with rat Capsaicin and due to sequence homology is expected to react with mouse Capsaicin . Other species have not yet been tested.
Species ReactivityHuman, Mouse (Predicted), Rat
Immunogen DescriptionA synthetic peptide (YFSHLKEYVAS) of human capsaicin receptor protein (aa: 531-541) conjugated to KLH has been used as the immunogen.
Application DetailsIHC. Use at 1:1000 to 1:2000 dilution. This antibody has not been tested in other applications. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
