Background Information: | The GRM1 Gq cell line is a stable, engineered cell line for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This cell line enables assessment of ligand (e.g. L-glutamate) based activation of GRM1 GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cell line overexpresses GRM1 , a naturally Gq coupled GPCR. Upon activation of GRM1 , the resulting calcium activity can be fluorescently assayed using the Calcium NoWash PLUS Detection Kit. This stable modified cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells. |
