General description

Vanilloid Receptor-1 (VR-1) is a cation channel protein that stimulates a burning pain sensation upon binding to capsaicin, a component of ′hot′ chilli peppers. VR-1 is also activated by noxious heat stimuli. Moreover, VR-1 can combine both, heat and chemical stimuli to cause a sensation of pain in vivo.

Specificity

Anti-Vanilloid Receptor-1 antibody is specific for vanilloid receptor-1 (90 kDa) in rats. The vanilloid receptor-1 immunizing peptide (rat, amino acids 817-838) specifically inhibits the staining of the vanilloid receptor-1 band in immunoblotting.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of rat vanilloid receptor-1 (amino acids 817-838) conjugated to KLH. The sequence is highly conserved in guinea pig (~85% identity) and human (~70% identity) and is not found in rat VRL-1.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Capsaicin, the main pungent ingredient in "hot" chili peppers, elicits buming pain by activating specific (vanilloid) receptors on sensory nerve endings. The cloned vanilloid receptor (VR1) is a cation channel that is also activated by noxious heat. Here, analysis of
