ChemiSCREEN™ Membrane Preparation Recombinant Human Y4 Neuropeptide Y Receptor

Description:
ChemiSCREEN™ Membrane Preparation Recombinant Human Y4 Neuropeptide Y Receptor
Trade Name:
  • ChemiScreen
  • Chemicon (Millipore)
Qty/Pk:
200 units
Product Overview:
Full-length human PPYR1 cDNA encoding Y4
Background Information:
The NPY family consists of three 36-amino acid peptides, neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP), which bind to the NPY receptor family of G protein-coupled receptors. Five NPY receptors, Y1, Y2, Y4, Y5 and Y6, have been defined at the molecular level, and each signals primarily through Gi/o. Binding of NPY family peptides to NPY receptors mediates a variety of physiological effects, including promotion of food intake, decreased anxiety, inhibition of neurotransmitter and hormone release, vasoconstriction, and gut motility. Y4 binds preferentially to PP, with significant binding to NPY and PYY (Michel et al., 1998). Y4 plays a role in control of reproduction, as Y4-null, ob/ob double knockout mice have increased fertility relative to ob/ob mice with functional Y4 (Sainsbury et al., 2002). In addition, mice lacking Y4 display resistance to weight gain induced by high fat diet, and mice lacking both Y2 and Y4 are resistant to the enhanced weight gain exhibited by Y1-null mice fed a high fat diet (Sainsbury et al., 2006). Millipore's Y4 membrane preparations are crude membrane preparations made from our proprietary stable recombinant cell lines to ensure high-level of GPCR surface expression; thus, they are ideal HTS tools for screening of agonists and antagonists of Y4. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.35 nM for [125I]-Pancreatic Polypeptide. With 0.4 nM [125I]-Pancreatic Polypeptide, 5μg/well Y4 Membrane Prep typically yields greater than 20-fold signal-to-background ratio.

Bmax for [125I]-Pancreatic Polypeptide binding: 3.7 pmol/mg protein
Kd for [125I]-Pancreatic Polypeptide binding: ~0.35 nM
Cell Type:
Chem-1
Brand Family:
Chemicon
Incubation Conditions:
Membranes are mixed with radioactive ligand and unlabeled competitor (see Figures 1 and 2 for concentrations tested) in binding buffer in a nonbinding 96-well plate, and incubated for 1-2 h. Prior to filtration, an FC 96-well harvest plate (Millipore cat. # MAHF C1H) is coated with 0.33% polyethyleneimine for 30 min, then washed with 50mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 0.5% BSA. Binding reaction is transferred to the filter plate, and washed 3 times (1 mL per well per wash) with Wash Buffer. The plate is dried and counted.

Binding buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1mM CaCl2, 0.2% BSA filtered and stored at 4°C

Radioligand: [125I]-Pancreatic Polypeptide. (Perkin Elmer #: NEX315 )

Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl, 0.1% BSA filtered and stored at 4°C.

One package contains enough membranes for at least 200 assays (units), where a unit is the amount of membrane that will yield greater than 20-fold signal:background with 125I labeled Pancreatic Polypeptide at 0.4 nM.
