Anti-MRGPRX4 Antibody, clone 3F4 ZooMAb^® Rabbit Monoclonal

ZooMAb antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor member X4 (UniProt: Q96LA9; also known as Sensory neuron-specific G-protein coupled receptor 5/6, MRGPRX4) is encoded by the MRGPRX4 (also known as MRGX4, SNSR5, SNSR6) gene (Gene ID: 117196) in human. MRGPRX4 is a multi-pass membrane glycoprotein with four extracellular domains, seven transmembrane domains, and four cytoplasmic domains. It is shown to be localized in a subset of small dorsal root and trigeminal sensory neurons. It has been classified as an orphan receptor that is involved in the regulation of nociceptor function and/or development, including the sensation or modulation of pain. It is shown to be potently activated by enkephalins. Several unconjugated and conjugated bile acids are reported to act as ligands for MRGPRX4 and may contribute to cholestatic pruritus. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
