Other Notes

Small volumes of PAFR elisa kit vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Searchable Terms for PAFR purchase

MBS724013 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the Platelet activating factor receptor (PAFR) ELISA Kit target analytes in biological samples. The concentration gradients of the kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical kit detection range in biological research samples containing PAFR. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS724013 kit is based on PAFR antibody-PAFR antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect PAFR antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, PAFR. Appropriate sample types may include undiluted body fluids and/or tissue homogenates, secretions. Quality control assays assessing reproducibility identified the intra-assay CV (%) and inter-assay CV(%).

NCBI Summary for PAFR

This gene encodes a seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptor for platelet-activating factor (PAF) that localizes to lipid rafts and/or caveolae in the cell membrane. PAF (1-0-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine) is a phospholipid that plays a significant role in oncogenic transformation, tumor growth, angiogenesis, metastasis, and pro-inflammatory processes. Binding of PAF to the PAF-receptor (PAFR) stimulates numerous signal transduction pathways including phospholipase C, D, A2, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), and the phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Following PAFR activation, cells become rapidly desensitized and this refractory state is dependent on PAFR phosphorylation, internalization, and down-regulation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

UniProt Comments for PAFR

PTAFR: Receptor for platelet activating factor, a chemotactic phospholipid mediator that possesses potent inflammatory, smooth- muscle contractile and hypotensive activity. Seems to mediate its action via a G protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; GPCR, family 1; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Receptor, GPCR

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1p35-p34.3

Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; membrane; intracellular membrane-bound organelle; integral to plasma membrane; integral to membrane; plasma membrane
