Biological Information
Background Information:
The ChemiScreen™ NPBW1 Neuropeptide B/W Receptor Stable Cell Line is an engineered cell line for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This cell line enables assessment of ligand (e.g. neuropeptide B/W) based activation of NPBWR1 GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cell line overexpresses NPBWR1 alongside endogenous high levels of the promiscuous G protein, Gα15, coupling the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Upon activation of NPBWR1 , the resulting calcium activity can be fluorescently assayed. This stable modified cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells.
