Product Summary for GPR50 Overexpression Lysate

GPR50 Transient Overexpression Lysate
Expression Host: HEK293T

Plasmid: RC217839

Accession#: NM_004224

Protein Tag: C-MYC/DDK

You will receive 1 vial of lysate (100ug), 1 vial of empty vector negative control (100ug), and 1 vial of 2xSDS sample buffer (250ul). Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein (at 1 mg/ml). The 2xSDS Sample Buffer consists of 4% SDS, 125mM Tris-HCl pH6.8, 10% Glycerol, 0.002% Bromophenol blue, 100mM DTT.

Product Specifications

Application Notes

This product is intended for use as a positive control in Western Blot. Overexpression of the target protein was confirmed using an antibody to DDK (FLAG) epitope tag (NBP1-71705) present on the protein construct.

Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein which should be sufficient for 20-50 reactions. Depending on over-expression level, antibody affinity and detection system, some lysates can go as low as 0.1 ug per load. We recommend starting with 5ug of cell lysate. Add an equal amount of cell lysate and 2X SDS Sample buffer and boil the SDS samples for 10 minutes before loading.

TMW

67.2 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: GPR50

GPR50, also known as MTR1L, is a nonglycosylated seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor that is related to the melatonin receptors MT1 and MT2. GPR50 is expressed in the hippocampus, hypothalamus, and pituitary and forms 130 kDa homodimers. It heterodimerizes with either MT1 or MT2, resulting in inhibition of MT1 but not MT2 function. An alternately spliced isoform of GPR50 has a 4 aa deletion in the large C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. The presence of this deletion as well as various polymorphisms in GPR50 have been associated with elevated serum triglyceride and HDL levels. The deletion may also be associated with the development of bipolar disorder. Human GPR50 shares approximately 70% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat GPR50.

Product Specific Notices for GPR50 Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Lysates are guaranteed for 6 months from date of receipt.
