DescriptionChemiSCREEN™ Membrane Preparation Recombinant Human MT2 Melatonin Receptor
OverviewFull-length human MTNR1B cDNA encoding MT2
Background InformationMelatonin (5-methoxy-acetyltryptamine) is a hormone synthesized and secreted in a circadian manner with high levels occurring in all species at night. Melatonin has been implicated in the regulation of various neural and endocrine processes that are cued by the daily change in photoperiod (Masana and Dubocovich, 2001) Two mammalian melatonin receptor subtypes, MT1 and MT2 have been cloned. Both receptors are members of the superfamily of putative seven transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors, which are coupled to the inhibition of cyclic AMP synthesis upon agonist binding. Pharmacological studies suggest that the phase shifting effect of melatonin on circadian rhythms may be mediated by the MT2 receptor subtype (Dubocovich et al. 1998). Melatonin inhibition of dopamine release from the retina is also mediated by the MT2 receptor subtype (Dubocovich et al. 1997). Chemicon's MT2 membrane preparations are crude membrane preparations made from our proprietary stable recombinant cell lines to ensure high-level of GPCR surface expression; thus, they are ideal HTS tools for screening of agonists and antagonists at MT2. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.1 nM for [125I]-Iodomelatonin. With 0.2 nM [125I]-Iodomelatonin, 5 µg/well MT2 Membrane Prep typically yields greater than 6-fold signal-to-background ratio.

Biological Information
Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes one of two high affinity forms of a receptor for melatonin, the primary hormone secreted by the pineal gland. This gene product is an integral membrane protein that is a G-protein coupled, 7-transmembrane receptor. It is found primarily in the retina and brain although this detection requires RT-PCR. It is thought to participate in light-dependent functions in the retina and may be involved in the neurobiological effects of melatonin.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P49286 # High affinity receptor for melatonin. Likely to mediates the reproductive and circadian actions of melatonin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity.
SIZE: 362 amino acids; 40188 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in retina and less in brain and hippocampus.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P49286 ## Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Incubation ConditionsMembranes are mixed with radioactive ligand and unlabeled competitor (see Figures 1 and 2 for concentrations tested) in binding buffer in a nonbinding 96-well plate, and incubated for 1-2 h. Prior to filtration, an FC 96-well harvest plate (Millipore cat. # MAHF C1H) is coated with 0.33% polyethyleneimine for 30 min, then washed with 50mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl. Binding reaction is transferred to the filter plate, and washed 3 times (1 mL per well per wash) with Wash Buffer. The plate is dried and counted.

Binding buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, filtered and stored at 4°C
Radioligand: [125I] Iodomelatonin (Perkin Elmer#: NEX-236)
Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl, filtered and stored at 4°C.
One package contains enough membranes for at least 200 assays (units), where a unit is the amount of membrane that will yield greater than 6-fold signal:background with [125I]-labeled Iodomelatonin at 0.2 nM
