Biological Information
Background Information:
The PathHunter® CXCR7 (CMKOR1) 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 (e.g. CXCL12/SDF-1α) based activation of CXCR7 GPCR activity via detection of β-arrestin recruitment. This product uses EFC technology. The included cell line overexpresses PK-tagged CXCR7 and EA-tagged β-Arrestin 2. Activation of CXCR7 stimulates the recruitment of β-Arrestin 2 and produces EFC signal.
This stable engineered cell line is provided as two vials of cryopreserved cells.
