Endothelin-1 receptor

N-terminal extracellular domain of human. Synthetic peptide - KLH conjugated. Purification: Peptide affinity columnWeight: 50 Â µ g Uses: IHC (16 ug/ml) (Optimal dilution to be determined by the researcher)

Receptor for endothelin-1. Mediates its action by association with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The rank order of binding affinities for ET-A is: ET1 & gt; ET2 & gt; & gt; ET3.

Membrane; multi-pass membrane protein.
