Efficient screening of ligands interacting with Gprotein-coupled receptors is central for modern drug development. Here, we describe an optimized reporter vector primarily intended for use in reporter cell lines expressing such receptors. The construct consists of a synthetic enhancer containing 9Ψ‹

The ability of high throughput membrane binding assays to detect ligands for G-protein coupled receptors was examined using mathematical models. Membrane assay models were developed using the extended ternary complex model (Samama et al., 1993) as a basis. Ligand binding to whole cells was modeled b

We describe in detail a robust, sensitive, and versatile functional assay for G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) expressed in human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293-EBNA (Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen) (designated 293E) cells. The ability to grow these cells in suspension, in conjunction with the us

Whole-cell functional assays are often used for high-throughput screening (HTS) of molecular targets such as ion channels and G-protein-coupled receptors. A common method for assaying the activity of these membrane proteins is to measure the change in intracellular calcium concentration upon recepto

It was previously found that pertussis toxin (PTX) pretreatment inhibits the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases ERK1 (p44 mapk ) and ERK2 (p42 mapk ) in hepatocytes in response to either agonists that bind to heptahelical receptors or epidermal growth factor (EGF), suggesting a rol
