uniprot entry name :
GRM7_RAT
specificity :
Specific for the ~102k mGluR7 protein phosphorylated at Ser862. Immunolabeling is blocked by preadsorption of antibody with the phospho-peptide used as antigen but not by the corresponding dephosphopeptide.
purity :
Affinity Purified (Prepared from rabbit serum by affinity purification via sequential chromatography on phospho and dephospho-peptide columns.)
form :
100 ul in 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 ug BSA per ml and 50% glycerol. Adequate amount of material to conduct 10-mini Western Blots.
storage stability :
For long term storage -20 degree C is recommended. Stable at -20 degree C for at least 1 year.
tested application :
Western Blot (WB)
app notes :
Quality Control: Western blots performed on each lot. WB: 1:1000
other info1 :
Antigen: Phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding phospho-Ser862 of rat mGluR7. Immunogen Information: Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser862 conjugated to KLH. Immunogen Species: Rat
other info2 :
Reactivity Assumed Based on 100% Sequence Homology: Bovine, canine, human, non-human primate and zebrafish. Species Reactivity Note: The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in Western blots in mouse and rat tissues. It is anticipated that the antibody will also work with bovine, canine, human, non-human primate and zebrafish tissues based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen. Biological Significance: Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are key receptors in the modulation of excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. They are implicated in many forms of neural plasticity as well as learning and memory and drug abuse (Bhattacharya et al., 2004; Francesconi et al., 2004; Wilson and Nicoll, 2001). The mGluRs are divided into three groups based on sequence identity and pharmacological properties: group I (mGluR1 and mGluR5) are localized in the perisynaptic region of the postsynaptic membrane, whereas group II (mGlur2 and mGluR3) and group III (mGluR4,6,7 and 8) are localized predominantly at presynaptic terminals. PKC phosphorylation of serine 862 on mGluR7 has been shown to be critical for stabilizing receptor surface expression and promoting binding to the synaptic PDZ-domain-containing protein PICK1 (Suh et al., 2008).

ncbi summary :
G-protein coupled receptor that inhibits glutamate release; acts via cAMP inhibitory and Ca+2 channel inhibitory pathways [RGD, Feb 2006]
uniprot summary :
Function: G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase. Signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity. Ref.1 Ref.2. Subunit structure: Interacts with PICK1. Ref.3. Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Tissue specificity: Widely distributed throughout the brain. Ref.1 Ref.2. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family.
