A polyclonal antibody specific for mouse Mup1 has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microplate with removable strips. Mup1 in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and a biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for mouse Mup1, which is recognized by a streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) conjugate. All unbound material is washed away and a peroxidase enzyme substrate is added. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-Multi, Storage information-Please refer to protocols\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Mup1 protein also known as Major Urinary Protein 1 has a molecular mass of approximately 19 kDa. It is expressed predominantly in the liver and secreted into the urine where it functions as a pheromone carrier. Mup1 is part of a large family of proteins called lipocalins known for their role in binding small hydrophobic molecules. In rodents Mup1 binds to volatile pheromones which are important for communication. Its expression pattern and functional role make Mup1 a significant protein for research concerning biochemical signaling mechanisms.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMup1 plays a substantial role in the modulation of pheromone signaling interacting with receptors in target organisms. It is not part of larger protein complexes but functions independently to facilitate chemical communication. Mup1's role extends beyond simple pheromone transport as it impacts mating behaviors and territorial marking in rodents. By carrying specific ligands Mup1 influences reproductive signaling and social interaction defining its importance in ecological studies.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nMup1 influences pheromonal communication and social behavior pathways in mammals. It significantly interacts with the olfactory signaling pathway where it binds to receptors such as V1R and V2R on sensory neurons. The activity of Mup1 in these pathways highlights its connection to the neural circuits responsible for detecting social cues linking it to other proteins involved in olfactory signal transduction.\u003cbr\u003e\nMup1 has shown links to metabolic regulation disorders particularly obesity. Altered Mup1 expression affects glucose metabolism and energy homeostasis connecting it to proteins like leptin and adiponectin known for their roles in metabolic processes. Furthermore research indicates potential links between Mup1 and neurological disorders related to social behavior though the exact mechanisms remain under investigation. These associations highlight the significance of Mup1 in the context of both metabolic and neurobehavioral studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843762213033,"sku":"ab284028","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab284028","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
