GPR40 Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul Vortex Mixer May play an important role

May play an important role in lens epithelial to fiber cell terminal differentiation

This protein is expressed most abundantly in skeletal and cardiac muscle

Additional transcript variants have been described

It is located at the 3' of the NOC4 (neighbor of COX4) gene in a head-to-head orientation

Mutations in this gene have been associated with ovarian| prostate| glioma| and colorectal cancers

GPR40 Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul Vortex Mixer May play an important roleFFAR1 encodes a member of the GP40 family of G protein coupled receptors that are clustered together on chromosome 19. The free fatty acid receptor 1 is a receptor for medium and long chain free fatty acids and may be involved in the metabolic regulation of insulin secretion. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with type 2 diabetes.
