We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The 5-HT2C receptor also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2C is a G-protein coupled receptor in the serotonin receptor family. It has a mass of approximately 51 kDa. This receptor primarily expresses in the central nervous system including regions like the choroid plexus. Researchers note the 5-HT2C receptor's significant presence in areas responsible for regulating mood and cognition making it a critical player in neurotransmitter systems.
Biological function summary

The 5-HT2C receptor plays a role in modulating neurotransmitter release. It is not part of a multi-subunit complex; instead it directly interacts with G proteins to exert its function. Upon activation by serotonin the receptor can influence the release of other neurotransmitters such as dopamine and norepinephrine. This interaction impacts various physiological processes including appetite control mood regulation and anxiety management.

Pathways

One finds the 5-HT2C receptor involved in the serotonin signaling pathway contributing to mood and behavior regulation. The receptor links to the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway where it engages proteins like phospholipase C. This connection is important for cellular responses to external stimuli. The 5-HT2C receptor also has relationships with other serotonin receptors like 5-HT2B which share similar signaling mechanisms within these pathways.

The 5-HT2C receptor has associations with conditions such as depression and obesity. Its regulatory role in neurotransmitter release influences mood disorders by affecting serotonin levels. Research has shown that the receptor connects with proteins like dopamine transporter which are relevant in the context of psychiatric disorders. In obesity altered receptor activity may affect appetite and energy balance contributing to weight regulation challenges.

Target data

G-protein coupled receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) (PubMed : 12970106, PubMed : 18703043, PubMed : 19057895, PubMed : 29398112, PubMed : 7895773). Also functions as a receptor for various drugs and psychoactive substances, including ergot alkaloid derivatives, 1-2,5,-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl-2-aminopropane (DOI) and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) (PubMed : 19057895, PubMed : 29398112). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors (PubMed : 18703043, PubMed : 29398112). HTR2C is coupled to G(q)/G(11) G alpha proteins and activates phospholipase C-beta, releasing diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) second messengers that modulate the activity of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and promote the release of Ca(2+) ions from intracellular stores, respectively (PubMed : 18703043, PubMed : 29398112). Beta-arrestin family members inhibit signaling via G proteins and mediate activation of alternative signaling pathways (PubMed : 29398112). Regulates neuronal activity via the activation of short transient receptor potential calcium channels in the brain, and thereby modulates the activation of pro-opiomelanocortin neurons and the release of CRH that then regulates the release of corticosterone (By similarity). Plays a role in the regulation of appetite and eating behavior, responses to anxiogenic stimuli and stress (By similarity). Plays a role in insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis (By similarity).
