Biological Information

Background Information:

The Ready-to-Assay Chem-6 Parental Control Frozen Cells are a convenient, thaw and use format of the Chem-6 cells used to create ChemiSCREEN™ cell lines. These cells lack most endogenous GPCR expression, and express high levels of the promiscuous G protein Gα15, allowing forced coupling of any class of GPCR to calcium signaling pathways. These ready-to-assay cells are intended for use as a negative control alongside the corresponding ready-to-assay GPCR-expressing cells. Ready-to-assay kits consist of two vials of the stably modified clonal cell line in a convenient thaw-and-use format.
