Biological Information
Background Information:
The PathHunter® PROKR2 Total GPCR internalization cell line is a stable, engineered cell line for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) affecting GPCR activation and internalization. This cell line enables assessment of ligand (e.g. prokinectin, EG-VEGF) based internalization of PROKR2 via detection of localization to the early endosome. This product uses EFC technology. The included cell line overexpresses PK-tagged PROKR2 and an EA-tagged early endosome protein. Upon ligand-induced receptor activation, resulting internalization of the PROKR2 receptor to the early endosome leads to production of EFC signal.
This stable engineered cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells.
