Target/Specificity | This DRD2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 307-336 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human DRD2. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | DRD2 Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | DRD2 |
---|---|
Function | Dopamine receptor whose activity is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase (PubMed:21645528). Positively regulates postnatal regression of retinal hyaloid vessels via suppression of VEGFR2/KDR activity, downstream of OPN5 (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | [Isoform 1]: Expressed in the anterior pituitary gland. |

Background
This gene encodes the D2 subtype of the dopamine receptor. This G-protein coupled receptor inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity. A missense mutation in this gene causes myoclonus dystonia; other mutations have been associated with schizophrenia. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A third variant has been described, but it has not been determined whether this form is normal or due to aberrant splicing.
