Biological Information
Background Information:
The ChemiBRITE CXCR3 Chemokine Receptor 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 based activation of CXCR3 GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cell line overexpresses CXCR3 alongside endogenous high levels of a promiscuous G-protein, coupling the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. ChemiBRITE cells also express a clytin variant, allowing for luminescent as well as fluorescent signal detection. Upon activation of CXCR3 , the resulting calcium activity can be assayed in either detection mode.
This stable engineered cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells.
