T2R45 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Peripheral Blood Separation Tube CCKAR (cholecystokinin A receptor) encodes

CCKAR (cholecystokinin A receptor) encodes a G-protein coupled receptor that binds non-sulfated members of the cholecystokinin (CCK) family of peptide hormones

Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for KCNK17

and whose preferred substrate is hydrogen peroxide

This gene uses two distinct promotors and translation start sites in the first exon to produce several transcript variants

Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms exist

T2R45 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Peripheral Blood Separation Tube CCKAR (cholecystokinin A receptor) encodesReceptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness and is gustducin linked. May play a role in sensing the chemical composition of the gastrointestinal content. The activity of this receptor may stimulate alpha gustducin, mediate PLC beta 2 activation and lead to the gating of TRPM5.
