A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of CHRNA5 antibody, Alternative Names: CHRNA5 control peptide, CHRNA5 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-CHRNA5 Blocking Peptide, Cholinergic Receptor Nicotinic Alpha 5 Blocking Peptide
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), such as CHRNA5, are members of a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that mediate fast signal transmission at synapses. The nAChRs are thought to be (hetero)pentamers composed of homologous subunits.
