Product Specific Information
OPA1-15003Z detects S1P1 from human samples. This antibody is expected to react with rhesus monkey, chimp, cat, pig, cow, mice, and rat S1P1 due to sequence homology.

OPA1-15003Z has been successfully used in immunohistochemistry procedures. By immunohistochemistry, OPA1-15003Z detects S1P1 in formalin fixed, paraffin embedded human tissues.

The OPA1-15003Z immunogen is a ynthetic peptide, KLH conjugated, corresponding to the to the C-terminus of human S1P1. This antibody detects an epitope near residue #350 of the human sequence.

Figure 1 shows a staining of S1P1 in human cells using OPA1-15003Z.
General Information
S1P1 transcripts have been reported to be present in embryonic and adult brain, lung alveolar macrophages, vascular smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, melanocytes, and TAg-Jurkat T cells, but to be absent from breast cancer cell lines.

G-protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) comprise one of the largest families of signaling molecules with more than a thousand members currently predicted to exist.  All GPCRs share a structural motif consisting of seven membrane-spanning helices, and exist in both active and inactive forms.  An array of activating ligands participate in the conformation of GPCRs which leads to signaling via G-proteins and downstream effectors.  Ongoing studies have also shown the vast series of reactions which participate in the negative regulation of GPCRs.  This "turn-off" activity has tremendous implications for the physiological action of the cell, and continues to drive pharmacological research for new drug candidates.  Two blockbuster drugs which have been developed as GPCR-targeted pharmaceuticals are Zyprexa (Eli Lilly) and Claritin (Schering-Plough) which have multi-billion dollar shares of the mental health and allergy markets, respectively.
