Scientific background

Calcitonin Receptor-Like Receptor 1 (CRLR or CGRPR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds the peptide hormone calcitonin and is involved in maintenance of calcium homeostasis, particularly with respect to bone formation and metabolism¹.

When engaged with its substrate, calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP), CGRPR activates cAMP-dependent pkA and PI3 kinase, which eventually leads to complex inhibitory as well as facilitator actions on Neuronal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor¹.

CGRP receptor is a heterodimer composed of two proteins: a 7‐transmembrane domain type 2 G-protein coupled receptor called calcitonin-receptor-like receptor (CRLR), and receptor-activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1), a single-membrane-pass protein. RAMP1 serves as a transporter for CRLR to the cell surface and its absence leads to failure of binding with CRLR².

CGRP and CGRPR are ubiquitously expressed and their interaction is related to various diseases and health states such as migraines³ and Alzheimer's disease¹.

Scientific Background

Specific Control Product

Isotype controls are primary antibodies that lack specificity to the target, but match the class and type of the primary antibody used in the application. Isotype controls are used as negative controls to help differentiate non-specific background signal from specific antibody signal.

Our Rabbit IgG Isotype Control-FITC (#RIC-001-F), was specifically developed to be used as a negative control in surface staining flow cytometry along our line of rabbit primary surface staining antibodies conjugated to FITC.
