Scientific Data Images for Human mGluR2 Antibody

Detection of mGluR2 antibody in U-118-MG Human Cell Line antibody by Flow Cytometry.

Detection of mGluR2 in U‑118‑MG Human Cell Line by Flow Cytometry.

U-118-MG human glioblastoma/ astrocytoma cell line was stained with Mouse Anti-Human mGluR2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4676, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB0041, open histogram), followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG F(ab')2Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permea-bilized with saponin.

Background: mGluR2

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) is an 872 aa, predicted 96 kDa multipass G protein coupled inhibitory receptor belonging to group II of the metabotropic glutamate receptor family. It is localized largely on the presynaptic side of glutamatergic and other neurotransmitter synapses in areas of the forebrain. mGluR2 activity is potentially involved in some anxiety disorders. The long N‑terminal extracellular region of human mGluR2 (aa 1‑498) shares 97% aa identity with either mouse or rat mGluR2.
