S1P1 Polyclonal Antibody Cayman Chemical Item Number 10005228 Description Antigen:human S1P1 amino acids 241-253 (ISKASRSSEKSLA) · Host:rabbit · Application(s):ICC, IHC (paraffin-embedded sections), and WB · Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) exerts its activity by binding to five distinct G-protein-coupled receptors, S1P1/EDG-1, S1P2/EDG-5, S1P3/EDG-3, S1P4/EDG-6, and S1P5/EDG-8.1↗,2↗ S1P1 primarily couples with pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi/o proteins to mediate S1P-induced cell proliferation, survival, migration, cytoskeletal organization, and morphogenesis.1↗,2↗,3↗ Expression of S1P1 is abundant in embryological vasculature and is ubiquitously expressed in adult cells suggesting diverse physiological functions of this receptor.2↗ The human and mouse S1P1 receptors have 382 amino acids with an estimated molecular weight of 43 kDa. Glycosylation at the N-terminal extracellular domain may cause the protein to migrate at a higher position in SDS-PAGE.4↗ Cayman’s S1P1 polyclonal antibody detects the receptor at 47 kDa by western blot analysis. The antibody can also be used for immunocytochemistry and immunohistochemistry to study expression patterns of this protein.
