Anti-AVPR1b antibody is validated on mouse tissue and recommended for immunofluorescence labeling, IHC, or western blot of materials from rodent tissues.

Vasopressin receptors are G protein coupled receptors. There are three subtypes of vasopressin receptor: AVPR1a, AVPR1b, and AVPR2. These three subtypes differ in localization, function and signal transduction mechanisms.

Vasopressin receptor subtype V1b (AVPR1b) is encoded by the AVPR1b gene in human. AVPR1b receptor is of 47 kDa and consists in seven transmembrane domains. AVPR1b receptor is expressed in the pituitary gland and the choroid plexus.
