Description

Neuropeptide Y-Lys(Biotinyl) (Free Acid) (Human, Rat) is a biotinylated derivative of the neuropeptide Y (NPY) sequence, specifically modified for high-affinity binding and detection applications. This compound is critical for advanced research into the NPY receptor system, which plays a significant role in regulating energy balance, anxiety, and cardiovascular function. It is an essential tool for researchers and developers in pharmaceutical discovery, neurobiology, and diagnostic assay development, enabling precise targeting and visualization of NPY pathways.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a high-specificity probe for studying NPY receptor binding affinity, distribution, and signaling mechanisms in vitro.
• Diagnostic Assay Development: Serves as a key component in the development of ELISA, Western blot, and other immunoassays for NPY detection and quantification.
• Drug Discovery Screening: Employed in high-throughput screening (HTS) platforms to identify and characterize novel NPY receptor agonists or antagonists.
• Affinity Purification: Utilized in pull-down assays and affinity chromatography for the isolation and purification of NPY receptor proteins or interacting partners.
• Cellular Imaging: Facilitates the visualization and tracking of NPY receptors in live or fixed cells via conjugation with fluorescent streptavidin derivatives.
• Neuroscience Studies: Applied in mapping NPY neural circuits and understanding its role in feeding behavior, stress response, and metabolic disorders.
