Anti-Human CNR2 Polyclonal Antibody

The cannabinoid delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol is the principal psychoactive ingredient of marijuana. The proteins encoded by this gene and the cannabinoid receptor 1 (brain) (CNR1) gene have the characteristics of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G-protein)-coupled receptor for cannabinoids. They inhibit adenylate cyclase activity in a dose-dependent, stereoselective, and pertussis toxin-sensitive manner. These proteins have been found to be involved in the cannabinoid-induced CNS effects (including alterations in mood and cognition) experienced by users of marijuana. The cannabinoid receptors are members of family 1 of the G-protein-coupled receptors.CNR2 (Cannabinoid Receptor 2) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with CNR2 include Cannabis Abuse and Glycerol Kinase Deficiency. Among its related pathways are Peptide ligand-binding receptors and Ibuprofen Pathway, Pharmacodynamics. GO annotations related to this gene include G-protein coupled receptor activity and cannabinoid receptor activity. An important paralog of this gene is CNR1.
