Description
Product Characteristics: For the quantitative determination of rat retinoic acid receptor responder protein 2 (RARRES2) concentrations in serum, plasma, cell culture supernates, tissue homogenates.
Target Information: This gene encodes a secreted chemotactic protein that initiates chemotaxis via the ChemR23 G protein-coupled seven-transmembrane domain ligand. Expression of this gene is upregulated by the synthetic retinoid tazarotene and occurs in a wide variety of tissues. The active protein has several roles, including that as an adipokine, and is truncated on both termini from the proprotein. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
