DiscoverX Ready-to-Assay™ MC5 Melanocortin Receptor Frozen Cells
Description
The Ready-to-Assay™ MC5 Melanocortin Receptor Frozen Cells are a simple, thaw-and-assay cell format for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This assay assesses ligand (e.g. α-MSH) based activation of MC5R GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cells overexpress MC5R alongside exogenous levels of a promiscuous G-protein, coupling the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Upon activation of MC5R , the resulting calcium activity can be fluorescently assayed. Ready-to-assay kits consist of two vials of the cells in a convenient thaw-and-use format.
