PathHunter® β-Arrestin Overview*
GPCR stimulation results in both G-protein dependent second messenger activation and G-protein independent signaling events such as Arrestin recruitment and internalization. Quantitatively examining the complex relationship that exists between G-protein and β-Arrestin signaling determines both efficacy and potential side effects of GPCR-targeted drugs.
DiscoveRx now offers the largest menu of pre-validated Arrestin GPCR assays for both known and orphan GPCRs. Because Arrestin recruitment occurs independent of G-protein coupling, the PathHunter® β-Arrestin GPCR assays offer a powerful and universal screening and profiling platform that can be used with virtually any Gi-, Gs-, or Gq-coupled receptors.
