Product Details

Background

Receptor activated by multiple ligands, including osteocalcin (BGLAP), basic amino acids, and various cations , basic amino acids, and various cations . Activated by amino acids with a preference for basic amino acids such as L-Lys, L-Arg and L-ornithine but also by small and polar amino acids . The L-alpha amino acids respond is augmented by divalent cations Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) . Seems to act through a G(q)/G(11) and G(i)-coupled pathway . Regulates testosterone production by acting as a ligand for uncarboxylated osteocalcin hormone: osteocalcin-binding at the surface of Leydig cells initiates a signaling response that promotes the expression of enzymes required for testosterone synthesis in a CREB-dependent manner . Mediates the non-genomic effects of androgens in multiple tissue .

Application

To ensure optimal assay performance, AREX recommends conducting reagent titration tailored to each testing system for optimal detection results.

WB	1:500 - 1:1000
IF/ICC	1:100 - 1:500

*Results are sample-specific. Please refer to your local assay conditions and test parameters for reference.

Data

Western blot analysis of GPRC6A expression in HEK293T (A), LO2 (B), rat testis (C) whole cell lysates. (Predicted band size: 104 kD; Observed band size: 120 kD)

Immunofluorescent analysis of GPRC6A staining in MCF7 cells. Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with the primary antibody in 3% BSA-PBS and incubated overnight at 4 °C in a hidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with Alexa Fluor 647-conjugated secondary antibody (red) in PBS at room temperature in the dark.

Storage

Store at 4°C short term. For long term storage, store at -20°C, avoiding freeze/thaw cycles.

Note

For Research Use Only. Not for diagnostic, therapeutics, prophylactic or in vivo use.

FAQs

What are the main types of research antibodies and how do they differ?

Research antibodies are mainly divided into monoclonal antibodies and polyclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies typically offer higher specificity and better batch-to-batch consistency, while polyclonal antibodies often provide stronger affinity but may show more variation between batches. The choice depends on your specific experimental needs.

How can I tell if a research antibody is suitable for my experiment?

It is recommended to carefully review the product datasheet for validated applications, species reactivity, recommended dilutions, and published references. For new antibodies, performing a small-scale validation with positive control samples is usually helpful.

Can improper storage of research antibodies affect experimental results?

Yes. Antibodies are sensitive to temperature, repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and contamination. Improper storage may lead to reduced activity, increased background, or weaker signals. It is best to follow the storage instructions provided in the product datasheet.

Why doesn’t the recommended dilution in the datasheet work well in my experiment?

The recommended dilution is based on the supplier’s test conditions. Factors such as sample type, fixation method, and detection system in your lab can influence the optimal working concentration. Performing a dilution series optimization in your own system is often necessary.

What precautions should I take when using a newly purchased research antibody for the first time?

It is advisable to briefly centrifuge the antibody (especially concentrated or lyophilized ones), then perform a small-scale pilot experiment using the recommended conditions. Recording the batch number and usage date is also helpful for future tracking.
