The TAS1R1 tas1r1 (Catalog #MBS617369) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Taste Receptor 1 (TR1) reacts with Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. MyBioSource\'s Taste Receptor 1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA), Western Blot (WB).Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
Dilution: Western Blot: 1-10ug/ml using ECL.
ELISA: 0.5-1ug/ml Control peptide can be used to coat ELISA plates at 1ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TAS1R1 tas1r1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
The TAS1R1 tas1r1 product has the following accession number(s) (GI #29294615) (NCBI Accession #NP_619642.2) (Uniprot Accession #Q7RTX1). Researchers may be interested in using Bioinformatics databases such as those available at The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website for more information about accession numbers and the proteins they represent. Even researchers unfamiliar with bioinformatics databases will find the NCBI databases to be quite user friendly and useful.

Higher vertebrates are believed to possess at least five basic tastes: Sweet, bitter, sour, salty, and unami (the taste of monosodium glutamate). Taste receptor cells that may selectively reside in various parts of the tongue and respond to different tastants and perceive these taste modalities. Circumvallate papillae, found at the very back of the tongue, are particularly sensitive to biter substances. Foliate papillae, found at the posterior lateral edge of the tongue, are sensitive to sour and bitter. Fungiform papillae at the front of the tongue specialize in sweet taste. Recently, two novel taste receptors, TR1 and TR2, have been cloned with distinct topographical distribution in taste receptor cells and taste buds. TRs are members of a new group of 7 TM domain containing GPCR distantly related to other chemosensory receptors (Ca+-sensing receptor (CaSR, a family of putative hormone receptor (V2R), and metabotropic glutamate receptors). TR1 is expressed in all fungiform taste buds, whereas TR2 localized to the circumvallate taste buds. Both receptors do not co-localize with gustducin.
Immunogen: A 24 AA Peptide sequence near the C-terminus of rat TR1(1) (KLH). In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing TAS1R1 are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as TAS1R1 may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results.
