Background |
The corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 2 CRF2 is Gs-coupled GPCRs expressed in the brain, blood vessels and intestine that bind to corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). The CRF is a 41-amino acid peptide that plays an important role in the integration of autonomic, neuroendocrine, and behavioral responses to stress. GenScript generated a clonal human CRF2-expressing cell line co-expressing Gα15 in the CHO-K1 host cells. |

Figure 1. Dose dependent stimulation of intracellular cAMP accumulation upon treatment with urocortin in CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells. d2 acceptor fluorophore -labeled cAMP (Cat. No. 62AM4PEC; Revvity) and intracellular cAMP in CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells competitively bind with Europium Cryptate-labeled anti-cAMP monoclonal antibody. The FRET signal decreases as the intracellular cAMP concentration rises and was measured by plate reader (Pherastar, BMG). The EC50 of urocortin on CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells was 0.086 nM.
