Chem-2 cells are a suspension cell line endogenously overexpressing Ga16 that is used as a host for Chemicon′s ChemiScreen GPCR Membrane Preparations. Chemicon′s ChemiScreen Wild-Type Chem-2 Membrane Preparations are ideal controls for validation of radioligand binding assays employing ChemiScreen GPCR Membrane Preparations in the Chem-2 host cell line.

Negative control in radioligand binding assay.

GPCR Class: N/A

Protein Target: Null Control

Target Sub-Family: Control

HOST CELLS: Chem-2TRANSFECTION: noneMembranes were adjusted to 0.5 mg protein/ml in 50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 10% glycerol and 1% BSA, rapidly frozen, and stored at -80°C. Use at the same protein concentration as the ChemiScreen GPCR Membrane Preparations of interest.

Maintain frozen at -70°C for up to 2 years. Do not freeze and thaw.
