Description de la cible

Neuronal acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha-7 (UniProt: P36544; also known as -Nicotinic Receptor Alpha 7, Nicotinic AChR alpha7) is encoded by the CHRNA7 (also known as NACHRA7) gene (Gene ID: 1139) in human. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are cation-selective, ligand-gated ion channels that mediate fast neurotransmission. They are distributed at the post-synaptic membrane of muscle cells. A similar neuronal-type ACh receptor is also found in the central nervous system and is involved in a wide range of physiological and pathological functions. They are assembled either as homo-pentamers of 7, 8, and 9 or hetero-pentamers of 2 6 in combination with β2 β4 or 9 with 10 subunits. They regulate the flow of sodium, potassium, and calcium ions across the cell membrane. The binding of ligands to these receptors triggers a tertiary conformational transition of neuronal AChRs among functionally distinct resting, open, and desensitized states. Nicotinic AChR 7 is a multi-pass, homopentameric, membrane glycoprotein that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-22), which is subsequently cleaved off to produce the mature protein that contains an extracellular domain (aa 23-230), four transmembrane domains (aa 231-255; 262-280; 296-317; and 470-490), and one cytoplasmic domain (aa 318-469).

Alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (α7 nAChRs) are important drug targets in neurological disorders and inflammation, making their detection and localization by validated antibodies highly desirable. However, tests in knockout animals raised questions about specificity of antibodies to mouse α7 nAChRs.
