Anti - Melanin Concentrating Hormone Receptor 2 (MCHR2)

May be stored at 4 °C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20 °C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 °C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

The human peptide sequence is 84% conserved in monkey MCHR2. No significant sequence homology is seen with other MCHR1 or other GPCR. Antibody crossreactivity in various species is not established. Control peptide, because of its low MW (<3kD), is not suitable for Western. It should be used in ELISA or antibody blocking experiments (use 5-10 ug of control peptide per 1 ug IgG or 1 ul of antiserum) to confirm antibody specificity.
