Anti-Olfactory receptor 7C1 Antibody

Raised in rabbit against the human Olfactory receptor 7C1 target, this unconjugated polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com is supplied as a 100 µl liquid aliquot and is validated for Western blot, immunofluorescence, and ELISA workflows. Olfactory receptors form the largest gene family in the human genome and were originally characterized as G-protein coupled receptors expressed in olfactory epithelium, yet subsequent work has shown that individual olfactory receptor genes are also transcribed in a range of non-olfactory tissues, opening active lines of research into their extra-nasal functions. Reagents such as this support protein-level mapping of OR7C1 distribution in human tissue lysates and cell lines, comparison of expression across matched normal and tumor samples, and follow-up of receptor-driven signaling.

The polyclonal format recognizes multiple epitopes across the seven-transmembrane OR7C1 protein, which is helpful when probing tissue or cell lysates in which a single linear epitope may be inaccessible. Because the reagent is supplied unconjugated, it can be paired with a user-selected fluorophore, biotin, or enzyme label, supporting custom membrane detection, multiplexed immunofluorescence panels, and ELISA plate coatings tailored to the project. The antibody reacts with human samples and is intended for research use only, making it relevant to groups working in chemosensory biology, reproductive cell biology, tissue physiology, and oncology biomarker discovery where ectopic olfactory receptor expression is being investigated.
