A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of GRIK5 antibody, Alternative Names: GRIK5 control peptide, GRIK5 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-GRIK5 Blocking Peptide, Glutamate Receptor Ionotropic Kainate 5 Blocking Peptide, EAA2 Blocking Peptide, GRIK2 Blocking Peptide, KA2 Blocking Peptide, GRIK5, GRIK-5, GRIK 5, GRIK-5 Blocking Peptide, GRIK 5 Blocking Peptide
GRIK5 is a protein that belongs to the glutamate-gated ionic channel family. Glutamate functions as the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system through activation of ligand-gated ion channels and G protein-coupled membrane receptors. GRIK5 forms functional heteromeric kainate-preferring ionic channels with the subunits encoded by related gene family members.
