Ready-to-Assay™ C3a Anaphylotoxin Receptor Frozen Cells

The Ready-to-Assay™ C3a Anaphylotoxin Receptor Frozen Cells measure C3AR1 (GPCR) activation via an increase in intracellular calcium. Ready-to-Assay kits contain two vials of thaw-and-use cells.

Catalog #: HTS016RTA Size: 2 vials

Biological Information
Background Information:	The Ready-to-Assay™ C3a Anaphylotoxin Receptor Frozen Cells are a simple, thaw-and-assay cell format for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This assay assesses ligand (e.g. C3a) based activation of C3AR1 GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cells overexpress C3AR1 alongside endogenous high levels of a promiscuous G-protein, coupling the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Upon activation of C3AR1 , the resulting calcium activity can be fluorescently assayed. Ready-to-assay kits consist of two vials of the stably modified clonal cell line in a convenient thaw-and-use format.
