Cat. No. CSC-RG0045
Background This gene encodes a G-protein coupled receptor that binds non-sulfated members of the cholecystokinin (CCK) family of peptide hormones. This receptor is a major physiologic mediator of pancreatic enzyme secretion and smooth muscle contraction of the gallbladder and stomach. In the central and peripheral nervous system this receptor regulates satiety and the release of beta-endorphin and dopamine.

Customer Q&As
What are the specific advantages of using the Human CCKAR-SNAP Stable Cell Line-CHO for GPCR signaling studies?

A: The Human CCKAR-SNAP Stable Cell Line-CHO offers several advantages for GPCR (G-protein coupled receptor) signaling studies. It allows for the study of CCKAR (Cholecystokinin A receptor) in a controlled environment, which is crucial for understanding its role in various physiological processes. The SNAP tag enables the cell line to be used for biochemistry and imaging applications, such as protein trafficking and dynamic localization studies. Additionally, the CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovary) host provides a robust and well-characterized system for protein expression and modification, which is essential for high-quality data collection.

How does the Human CCKAR-SNAP Stable Cell Line-CHO contribute to drug discovery and development?

A: This cell line is instrumental in drug discovery as it provides a platform for high-throughput screening of potential CCKAR modulators. By studying the receptor's activity and response to various compounds, researchers can identify potential drug candidates that modulate CCKAR, which could be useful in treating conditions related to its dysregulation.

How does the Human CCKAR-SNAP Stable Cell Line-CHO facilitate the study of receptor trafficking and internalization?

A: The SNAP tag allows for the visualization of the CCKAR receptor's movement within the cell. By attaching fluorescent probes to the SNAP tag, researchers can track the receptor's trafficking pathways and internalization dynamics in real-time, providing insights into the cellular processes associated with GPCR function.

How does the Human CCKAR-SNAP Stable Cell Line-CHO aid in understanding the role of CCKAR in disease pathology?

A: By studying the CCKAR receptor in a controlled environment, researchers can investigate its involvement in various diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and neurological disorders. This cell line provides a platform for studying the receptor's function in the context of disease-related pathways and identifying potential therapeutic targets.

What are the limitations of using the Human CCKAR-SNAP Stable Cell Line-CHO for studying CCKAR function?

A: While this cell line provides a valuable model, it may not fully replicate the complex environment of the human body. Factors such as cell-cell interactions, tissue-specific expression, and the influence of other signaling pathways may not be accurately represented. Additionally, the CHO host system may introduce species-specific differences that could affect the interpretation of results.
