DiscoverX PathHunter™ eXpress GPR6 CHO-K1 β-Arrestin Orphan GPCR Assay

The PathHunter™ GPR6 eXpress kit provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to study drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This kit assesses ligand based activation of GPR6 GPCR activity via detection of β-arrestin recruitment. This product uses EFC technology (www.discoverx.com/technologies-platforms/enzyme-fragment-complementation-technology). The included cells overexpress PK-tagged GPR6 and EA-tagged β-Arrestin 2. Activation of GPR6 stimulates the recruitment of β-Arrestin 2 and produces EFC signal. eXpress kits are a convenient, ready-to-use format which contains all materials needed to run the assay, including single-use vials of cryopreserved cells, cell plating media, detection reagent, and assay plates. Orphan receptor with unknown ligand.
