| Background | Prokineticins are small proteins expressed in the GI tract and other tissues that regulate contraction of GI smooth muscle, angiogenesis and other responses. Two closely related receptors for prokineticins have been cloned, PKR1 and PKR2. PKR2 is expressed in ileocecum, in brain and in endocrine tissues. PKR2 is Gq coupled and has been shown to be activated by mamba intestinal toxin (MIT1). This PKR2-expressing cell line displays a very robust calcium response and is useful as a target for drug discovery. |

| Safety Considerations |
The following safety precautions should be observed. 1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum. 2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line. 3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab. 4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells. 5. All waste should be considered hazardous. 6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach. |
