Anti-alpha 1d Adrenergic Receptor/ADRA1A Antibody Picoband®

ADRA1A, also known as alpha-1A adrenergic receptor, is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor, and also denotes the human gene encoding it. This gene is mapped to 8p21.2. Alpha-1-adrenergic receptors are G protein-coupled transmembrane receptors that mediate actions in the sympathetic nervous system through the binding of the catecholamines, epinephrine and norepinephrine. It has been found that ADRA1A transcripts in heart, brain, liver, and prostate. ADRA1A is the predominant ADRA1 subtype in liver and heart, and it can mediate the contraction of prostate smooth muscle.

Alpha-1A adrenergic receptor; Alpha-1A adrenoreceptor; Alpha-1A adrenoceptor; Alpha-1C adrenergic receptor; Alpha-adrenergic receptor 1c; ADRA1A; ADRA1C

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human ADRA1A, different from the related mouse and rat sequences by four amino acids.

Expressed in heart, brain, liver and prostate, but not in kidney, lung, adrenal, aorta and pituitary. Within the prostate, expressed in the apex, base, periurethral and lateral lobe. Isoform 4 is the most abundant isoform expressed in the prostate with high levels also detected in liver and heart. .

This alpha-adrenergic receptor mediates its action by association with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system. Its effect is mediated by G (q) and G (11) proteins. Nuclear ADRA1A-ADRA1B heterooligomers regulate phenylephrine (PE) -stimulated ERK signaling in cardiac myocytes. .

Store at -20°C for one year from date of receipt. After reconstitution, at 4°C for one month. It can also be aliquotted and stored frozen at -20°C for six months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Nucleus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Location at the nuclear membrane facilitates heterooligomerization and regulates ERK-mediated signaling in cardiac myocytes. Colocalizes with GNAQ, PLCB1 as well as LAP2 at the nuclear membrane of cardiac myocytes.
