Product Description
The Neuromedin B receptor (BB1) is a seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor that binds to its endogenous ligand, neuromedin B. This neuropeptide functions as a growth factor and mitogen in gastrointestinal epithelial tissues as well as in normal and neoplastic lung tissues. The receptor is involved in regulating various physiological processes including smooth muscle contraction, neuronal responses, and cellular growth. Research indicates that antagonists of this receptor hold potential therapeutic value in inhibiting tumor cell growth, while genetic polymorphisms of the receptor may be associated with susceptibility to schizophrenia.
ScreeningBio’s HEK293T/Human BB1 β-Arrestin cell line is an ideal tool for studying GPCR/β-arrestin interactions. In this system, the GPCR C-terminus is fused to a smallBiT tag, and the β2-arrestin N-terminus is fused to a largeBiT tag. Upon receptor activation, GPCR/β-arrestin interaction brings the two fragments together to reconstitute an active NanoLuc enzyme, which can be quantified using the NanoBiT substrate. This cell line is designed to evaluate a compound’s ability to activate the β-arrestin signaling pathway.
