Background Information: | The ChemiScreen™ MRGPRD Receptor Stable Cell Line is an engineered cell line for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This cell line enables assessment of ligand (e.g. β-alanine) based activation of MRGPRD GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cell line overexpresses MRGPRD alongside endogenous high levels of the promiscuous G protein, Gα15, coupling the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Upon activation of MRGPRD , the resulting calcium activity can be fluorescently assayed. This stable modified cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells. |
