Description
Product Characteristics: For quantitative detection of P2RY12 in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates.
Target Information: The product of this gene belongs to the family of G-protein coupled receptors. This family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This receptor is involved in platelets aggregation, and is a potential target for the treatment of thromboembolisms and other clotting disorders. Two transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
