Anti-Gα olf Antibody

Raised in rabbit and purified by affinity chromatography, this polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com is directed against Gα olf (also known as GNAL, Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(olf) subunit alpha), a stimulatory G-protein alpha subunit that mediates odorant signaling in the olfactory epithelium and couples dopamine D1 and adenosine A2A receptors in the central nervous system. The reagent is supplied as an unconjugated IgG polyclonal antiserum in a 50 µl vial at a working concentration of 1 mg/ml, and it is validated for use in Western blot, immunohistochemistry and ELISA applications across human, mouse and rat samples. The synthetic peptide immunogen corresponds to an internal region of the human Gα olf sequence, and the antibody recognizes endogenous levels of the target with an observed band at approximately 40 kDa, consistent with the predicted molecular weight of the GNAL protein. For day-to-day use, the vial should be stored at –20 °C and aliquoted to avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles; for continuous long-term use, storage at –20 °C is recommended to preserve antibody activity. With its broad species reactivity and triple-application validation, this reagent is well suited to neuroscience and signalling studies investigating olfactory transduction, dopaminergic pathways and GNAL-related dystonia research, providing researchers with a reliable polyclonal tool for detecting Gα olf in cell lysates, tissue sections and ELISA-based quantitative assays.
