简介
Major urinary protein 11 Protein functions as a key player in pheromone binding, stabilizing and facilitating their slow release from urine marks. It may safeguard pheromones from oxidation and potentially acts as a pheromone itself, influencing social behaviors like aggression, mating, pup-suckling, territory establishment, and dominance. The protein exhibits in vitro binding to the pheromone analog 2-sec-butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazole (SBT). Major urinary protein 11 Protein, Mouse (His) is the recombinant mouse-derived Major urinary protein 11 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.

Protein Description
Major urinary protein 11 (MUP-11) is a member of a family of proteins that are primarily found in the urine of rodents and play a crucial role in chemical communication and social signaling, particularly in olfactory cues. These proteins bind and transport various volatile compounds, which are significant for pheromonal signaling. Research into MUP-11 has gained momentum due to its potential implications in behavioral ecology and genetics, particularly in understanding how these proteins influence mating behaviors and territory marking. Recent studies have focused on the evolutionary aspects of MUPs, investigating how variations in their structure can affect their binding properties and, consequently, the social interactions among individuals. Furthermore, recombinant technology has facilitated the production of MUP-11, offering insights into its functional dynamics and interactions with ligands. The study of MUP-11 not only enhances our understanding of rodent behavior but also contributes to broader discussions on the evolutionary mechanisms of pheromone signaling and social communication in mammals. Through the investigation of recombinant MUP-11, researchers aim to elucidate the molecular bases of pheromone recognition and signaling, which could have wider implications in fields such as conservation biology and the understanding of urban wildlife behavior.
