Anti-DRD1 Antibody

This polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets the dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1), a G protein-coupled receptor densely expressed in the central nervous system, particularly within the striatum, cortex, and hippocampus. Raised in rabbit, the reagent is supplied as 100 µl of an unconjugated preparation at 1 mg/ml in PBS containing 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, providing cryoprotective stability that supports long-term freezer storage while remaining compatible with standard antibody dilution buffers. Validated applications include Western blot for protein-level detection of DRD1 in human samples and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for visualizing receptor distribution in fixed tissue sections. Researchers studying dopaminergic signaling, reward circuitry, and neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's disease deploy this reagent to map receptor localization or confirm expression changes in experimental models. Because the antibody is polyclonal, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes across the DRD1 protein, which improves tolerance to minor sample variation and supports signal in applications where monoclonal reagents produce weak bands. The absence of a conjugated label leaves the user free to pair the antibody with their preferred secondary detection system, including HRP, biotin, or fluorescent reporters, depending on the experimental readout required.
