Biological Information

Background Information:

The PathHunter® PRLHR Activated 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. prolactin releasing peptide) based internalization of PRLHR via detection of localization to the early endosome. This product uses EFC technology. The included cell line overexpresses EA-tagged β-arrestin 2 as well as a PK-tagged early endosome protein and untagged PRLHR. Upon ligand-induced receptor activation, β-arrestin 2 is recruited to the activated GPCR and the resulting PRLHR-arrestin complex is internalized to the early endosome, leading to production of EFC signal.
This stable engineered cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells.
