Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human Y2 Receptor) Stable Cell Line which Y2 receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells which overexpress Gαqi5.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human Y2 Receptor) Stable Cell Line was engineered to express the receptor human Y2 (NM_00091) and Gαqi5 gene. NPY2R has been shown to contribute to obesity. This cell line can be used to study Y2 receptor function, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic interventions.

Background
NPY2R (Y2) belongs to the family of G protein-coupled receptors. It is expressed at high levels in central nerve system, heart, ileum and colon. NPY2R shows high affinity for neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY), and a fragment of NPY including amino acids 13 to 36. The rank order of affinity of this receptor for pancreatic polypeptides is PYY> NPY> PYY (3-36)> NPY (2-36)> [Il-31, Gln-34] PP> [Leu-31, Pro-34] NPY> PP, [Pro-34] PYY and NPY free acid. NPY exhibits a variety of potent central and peripheral effects including those on feeding, memory, blood pressure, and intestinal secretions. NPY2R has been shown to contribute to obesity.
