Rabbit Anti-Somatostatin Receptor 2 antibody
Somatostatin is a tetradecapeptide that is widely distributed in the body and is one of five receptor subtypes termed SSTr1-. These receptors function in the regulation of numerous phsiological processes such as the secretion of insulin, glucagon and growth hormone as wel as cell growth induced by neuronal excitation in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Somatostatin receptos are activated via sonatostatin secreted by nerve and endocrine cells. Somatostatin Receptor 2 (SSR2), along with SSR1, is expressed at the highest levels in the stomach and jejunum, cerebrum and kidney, respectively.
Function:
Receptor for somatostatins-14 and -28. This receptor is coupled via pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. In addition it stimulates phosphotyrosine phosphatase and PLC via pertussis toxin insensitive as well as sensitive G proteins. In RIN-5F cells, this receptor inhibits calcium entry by suppressing voltage dependent calcium-channels.
Subunit:
The SLCterminus interacts with SHANK1 PDZ domain.
Subcellular Location:
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue Specificity:
Cerebrum and kidney. In lesser amounts in jejunum, colon and liver.
Similarity:
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
