AT2 Human Angiotensin GPCR Binding Agonist Radioligand LeadHunter Assay - TW

Procedure Summary:

Human recombinant angiotensin AT2 receptors expressed in CHO-K1 cells are used in modified Tris-HCl buffer pH 7.4. A 2.4 μg‡ aliquot is incubated with 0.05 nM [¹²⁵I] CGP-42112A for 3 hours at 37°C. Non-specific binding is estimated in the presence of 10 μM (Sar¹, Ile⁸)-Angiotensin II. Membranes are filtered and washed, the filters are then counted to determine [¹²⁵I] CGP-42112A specifically bound. Compounds are screened at 10 μM.
Note: ‡Membrane protein may change from lot to lot, the concentration used will be adjusted if necessary.
