Rabbit anti-Human HRH4 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9H3N8

Target Species

Human

Target Name

HRH4

Target Full Name

Histamine H4 receptor

Target Function

The H4 subclass of histamine receptors could mediate the histamine signals in peripheral tissues. Displays a significant level of constitutive activity (spontaneous activity in the absence of agonist).

Target Subcellular Location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

G-protein coupled receptor 1 family

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed primarily in the bone marrow and eosinophils. Shows preferential distribution in cells of immunological relevance such as T-cells, dendritic cells, monocytes, mast cells, neutrophils. Also expressed in a wide variety of peripheral tissues, inclu

Target Synonyms

HRH4; GPCR105; Histamine H4 receptor; H4R; HH4R; AXOR35; G-protein coupled receptor 105; GPRv53; Pfi-013; SP9144

Target Background

Histamine is a ubiquitous messenger molecule released from mast cells, enterochromaffin-like cells, and neurons. Its various actions are mediated by a family of histamine receptors, which are a subset of the G-protein coupled receptor superfamily. This gene encodes a histamine receptor that is predominantly expressed in haematopoietic cells. The protein is thought to play a role in inflammation and allergy reponses. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
