Anti-MTNR1A Antibody

Designed for research-grade detection of the melatonin receptor 1A (MTNR1A), this polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is raised in rabbit hosts and affinity-purified to greater than 95% homogeneity. It is supplied as a 50 µL liquid aliquot at a working concentration of 1 mg/mL in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 15 mM sodium azide, adjusted to approximately pH 7.2. The unconjugated polyclonal IgG binds endogenous MTNR1A in samples of human, mouse, and rat origin and is validated for Western blot (WB) applications. Because the reagent carries no fluorophore or enzyme tag, it can be paired with a secondary reporter of the researcher's choice in standard immunoblotting protocols. Storage at –20 °C is recommended, with handling on ice and avoidance of repeated freeze–thaw cycles to preserve the affinity-purified preparation; the sodium azide in the buffer also serves as a microbial preservative for short-term bench-top use. Intended for research use only, this primary antibody offers a reliable option for laboratories studying G-protein-coupled melatonin signaling in circadian rhythm, neuroendocrine, and receptor-trafficking projects across human cell lines and rodent tissue lysates.
