Product Information
FormatPurified
Control
  • Included free of charge with the antibody is 40 µg of control antigen (lyophilized powder). The stock solution of the antigen can be made up using 100 µL of sterile deionized water. For negative control, preincubate 1 µg of peptide with 1 µg of antibody for one hour at room temperature. Optimal concentrations must be determined by the end user.
PresentationLyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA, and 0.05% sodium azide as a preservative. Reconstitute with 200 μL of sterile deionized water. Centrifuge antibody preparation before use (10,000 xg for 5 min).
Quality LevelMQ100
Applications
ApplicationThis Anti-Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 Antibody is validated for use in WB for the detection of Somatostatin Receptor Type 5.
Key Applications
  • Western Blotting
Application NotesWestern blot: 1:200 using ECL on rat brain lysate.
Dilutions should be made using a carrier protein such as BSA (1-3%).

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
Biological Information
ImmunogenPurified peptide from the N-terminus of rat Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (Accession number P30938).
HostRabbit
SpecificityRecognizes Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (SSTR5, SS5R).
Species Reactivity
  • Rat
Species Reactivity NoteThe immunogen sequence is identical in mouse and 12 of 14 amino acids identical in human.
Antibody TypePolyclonal Antibody
Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummarySomatostatin acts at many sites to inhibit the release of many hormones and other secretory proteins. The biological effects of somatostatin are probably mediated by a family of G protein-coupled receptors that are expressed in a tissue-specific manner. SSTR5 is a member of the superfamily of receptors having seven transmembrane segments.
Gene Symbol
  • SSTR5
  • SS5R
Purification MethodImmunoAffinity Purified
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P35346 # Receptor for somatostatin 28 and to a lesser extent for somatostatin-14. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase.
SIZE: 364 amino acids; 39202 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Adult pituitary gland, heart, small intestine, adrenal gland, cerebellum and fetal hypothalamus. No expression in fetal or adult kidney, liver, pancreas, uterus, spleen, lung, thyroid or ovary.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P35346 ## Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
